Also, to get around these constant price rises, some might go for a much cheaper streaming service option, where the starting price is lower to start with.

Unless you're a sports fan, the argument for paying for TV is getting weaker IMO.
I currently get Netflix, Amazon Prime and Now TV ents+movies (got a great deal on Black Friday) so combined with Freeview which actually has a decent choice of 'casual watching' channels plus a few in HD, I have absolutely no interest in the expensive and limited TV packages that Virgin Media offer. OTA Pay TV is over as far as I'm concerned, I'm only interested in Broadband.
