I don't want to seem pessimistic but Sky and BT have only probably reached this agreement due to the football rights. Virgin have nothing to exchange bar the broadband access which they want to keep. I can only see this as a major downside for Virgin with packages going up as I am sure that the wholesale cost of BT Sport to Sky has been negotiated downwards in exchange for NOWTV access etc while Virgins will stay the same or rise.
