My concern is that they'll jack up the price of Now TV, too, which so far has proven reasonable, even with Sky Sports (the Sky Sports day pass is £6.99 or less).
I've just been having a more detailed look at pricing of VM's XL , Sky Family pack and Sky Q Silver.

They priced as follows

VM XL TV (when took alone) £39.50
Sky Family bundle £36 rising to £38 from June
Sky Q Silver £54 rising to £56

The main selling points appear to be

VM XL TV - BT Sport channels included , HD included and TIVO

Sky Family Bundle - Sky Atlantic (with exclusive HBO and Showtime content) , HD included , Decent range of Boxsets.

Sky Q Silver - 1 multiroom box included with the ability to use two tablets also , UHD entertainment content soon , record 4 whilst watching a 5th , 2TB storage , certain recordings available to take on the move , Sky Go Extra included , free repairs.

Being I already have Multiroom I could be talking myself into Sky Q although the Sky premium channels are looking way to expensive. Sky Family bundle and multiroom would cost me £50 from June. The big gripe I have is the upfront costs.
