The point being made is that the whole thing is now getting too expensive for many , the entry price for Sky Sports requires you to also have a base TV package unless you are happy with Now TV.
Sky Sports isn't the only player in town now BT has a pretty decent offering sure it has less key sporting rights than Sky but then it can be had included with your package on both VM and the BT TV platform.
If what I'm trying to say is incorrect and everything with Sky Sports subscriptions is hunky dory explain why Sky are having to offer so many freebies and half price discounts for periods of 9 and 12 months something they've never had to do before.
I'm not suggesting Sky can't afford to discount but they clearly have to now to tempt people to subscribe.
