You thought of the other 50% as VOD - in both cases, confirmation bias appears to be in play (in my case, informed by various seniors that I know viewing habits).

Re the "one subscription at a time" - do you really believe that people will want to be switching all the time, a couple of times a month?

Exactly.

OB has always had the idea that people will be forever changing their subscription.

It would be interesting how often people change their satellite/cable subscription - this would give a reasonable indication of people's likely habits in this respect.


And to reply to OB - all outgoing a need to be reviewed, which certainly includes broadband.

My current BB usage is limited to email and browsing the Internet - I can do that on my smartphone so why would I need BB at all, don't really need it now apart from enabling me to watch sport on Sky/BT sports
