Can't remember when VM went HD and when Sky put there channels on it - but it is usual for companies to hold on to these type of produces as long as possible.

I think when Sky Sports added new sports channels - they launched on VM and Sky at the same time. But I think it was about 4 years for VM to get the first Sports HD channel after it's launch.

As long as customers are signing up with Sky for 4K sports - they are not going to share it.
