If you wanted to retain Sky Sports in the event they lost the contract (ie because there were also other sports you wanted to see as well), Sky would be charging a lot less given the absence of the premiership games.

Will they? I seriously doubt it. They have lost a lot of rights over the past few years - their subscription cost has never gone down.

You are a tad out of touch, most PC's can be connected to any TV which has a HDMI port and for streaming and video playback duties can be bought pretty cheaply.
I have yet to find any paid for streaming service that doesn't offer a minimum of 720P HD, when it comes to free services apart from BBC Iplayer the other PSB's are severely lacking in the image quality stakes on their online catchup services.

Not out of touch at all, yes my PC could connect to the TV - however as they are nowhere near each other that is a non-starter.
