If this is correct, I presume they will become a bit like Eurosport, but I do not understand the logic - how are ES going to recover any money that they have paid out for the rights? Who will subscribe to their streaming service when they can watch for free on sky?

Also, will this channel be available via VM?
When you become part of a Sky subscription package for instance Sky Entertainment you generally receive money for it which is guaranteed income just like Virgin does for its top package that includes BT Sport.

Early on I can't see anyway were Eleven Sports goes down the standalone subscription model only in my opinion it simply wouldn't get enough people.
