I think that would be a good thing to do in exchange for Sky Atlantic and the back catalogue on demand.

Sky currently seem to be letting channels go not adding them.
They could, I guess, but they haven't done so.

VMs UHD channel is indeed a welcome addition but it is shows that can be found on other services so far from exclusive i'm afraid.
If they wanted SKY and BT could make a offer to carry Starz play too, it is not a exclusive VM contract.
I haven't double-checked this, but I thought I had read that The Rook was exclusive to VM.

Happy to be corrected, though.
