Considering Sky aren’t particularly being aggressive in their pursuit of cable customers as it is (the current new customer offers are quite tame) what’s the value added for Sky in doing this?
First it was May, then it was the end of Game of Thrones, now it’s when Now TV joins BT. Then it’ll be some other magical stumbling block.

The date for that announcement may be delayed. Or maybe Sky just don't want it publicly announced. It could be that the BT deal being delayed is the cause of the hiatus, and that may continue until the New Year. Who knows?
As has been explained previously, Sky want to monetise their content. A very economic argument!
I don't regard the BT deal as being a stumbling block! Where ARE you coming from, you antagoniser, you!
