The difference being that you pay for a whole raft of channels you don’t want.

It reminds me of earlier discussions where goalposts were moved.
I get the apps I need on Virgin (apart from Discovery+ and NOW). However, we have been advised that Discovery is on its way and Max will be showing the Sky stuff I want to see (eg HBO shows), so that will provide me with everything I need. I will no longer require NOW or the Sky channels. Any new streamers that come along will be available through my TV sticks and my Smart TV if they are not on Virgin.

I won’t be ‘locked in’ to anything and I won’t be paying for channels I don’t watch.
