My reason for thinking this, a lot of sky/virgin customers will be locked into contracts of up to 18 months - exiting these can be costly.
Streamers generally are on a rolling monthly contract so when you need to save money they will be the first to go.

Not just 18 month contracts - a supplier of multiple services.
I'm happy to chop and change to get value, but parents at their home are on an Ultimate Volt-ish package for about £110.
Phone line with unlimited calls is a must (yes, I know), Sky Sports is a must, FTTP not available.
So what's the options? £20 for phone/fttc, £33 for Sky Sports (Now), £16 for an unlimited SIM only package. So you're already at £70 for an extremely reduced service, with no recording convenience.

Given they have no viable business model at current prices, no, I'm not surprised in the slightest.
