That’s only relevant if you weren’t paying for broadband before.Anyhow, broadband is necessary these days for far more than watching TV.

Everyone knows sports is what has kept gravy train going for Sky where the high value customers are. This is reflected in the value of the rights compared to the pennies per month per subscriber Sky and Virgin were paying third parties for general entertainment. They’ve either called it wrong since the very inception of pay-television or some of these content providers are in for a rude awakening.
Yes it is, but as I said, like for like (ie comparing it with Sky and cable entertainment packages including Sky Cinema), the relevant streamers in substitution for the channels is very good value at £29.
