I'm on the side of the consumer, only fanboys wouldn't be.

I'd argue without being able to differentiate your platform you just have the same offering from everyone so whilst the only option is to reduce price this also results in seeing less players leaving the remaining platforms ultimately able to charge what they want.
Tell me an industry out there that doesn't have some form of exclusivity.
Purely personal opinion but I do believe Sky Atlantic will end up on VM at some point in the future.
