A foolish conclusion.

The average person - in particular due to the massive economic impact of COVID-19 - does not have unlimited income. Does not have unlimited discretionary expenditure.

Surely even you will be aware of the potential damage Disney could have done to Sky by taking away their programming.
Potential.

Equally it could damage Disney in the long run.

Your one dimensional view of things really does throw up some strange arguments, jfman! Sky cannot afford to disregard the future of TV as you do.
Yawn, they literally operate a streamer.

It’s not just about money. It’s about getting all your searchable content in one box. That’s what most savvy customers want.
Not at unlimited cost I’m sure. Neither do streamers want their content presented below another provider because they ponied up more.

It’s literally all about money. Your wet dream of them all striking wholesale agreements with some streaming box provider is just that. Fantasy.
