The argument for this stupid idea was that more people had SSN HQ as opposed to Sky Sports. Maybe Sky insisted on the change via a contractual agreement??

We think the following channels maybe one for the chop.
-Sky 2 (With no HD channel for Sky Sports Mix)
-Sky Real Lives (And Sky Real Lives for Sky Sports Mix HD)
-Sky Sports 5 (And Sky Sports 5 HD for Sky Sports Mix HD)
At time of posting Sky Sports Mix will only launch on Sky.

Sky Real Lives is now simply called Real Lives leading many people to believe that this will be the next Sky channel to go FTA.
I doubt Sky will want to make it look like they have less sports channels.

There are no restrictions to HD channels wanting to join Sky, it's just the SD launch queue that's been closed.
This means that they could obtain a slot from an SD only channel and launch a new HD variant.
