I’m sure you can appreciate why I think Sky/Virgin aren’t dead just yet.

If someone with your foresight into this rich and diverse future isn’t in a position to cut the cord just yet I’m not sure at what point your average, lazy television viewer crosses the threshold.
Well, if they want to maximise their audience, yes. They have to make access available to as many people as possible, so the more platforms their streamers are on, the better.

I haven't ever said that Virgin or Sky were in danger of dying, but I have claimed they will need to adapt.

The streamers need to chase the lazy viewers. That's why Netflix have adapted their streamer to play random stuff continuously. Switch on, chill out.
