It's important to understand that only 20% of VM customers take Sky Movies or Sky Sports and they're hefty additions on top of most peoples' bills. So even if VM got these channels in 4k when Eos launches, only one in five people would potentially benefit.
I think 4k will play out a bit like HD has done. But I think adoption will be a lot slower. 4k v HD feels less of a substantial enhancement than HD v SD was and the public broadcasters don't have spare cash lying around.
It's a bit early to start worrying about content until the box arrives.
