Personally i'll decide when I see what's on offer and for what price.

I think people will be tempted as they'll be able to get Sky Atlantic and it should work out cheaper than paying VM and Now TV.

Those who only have cable because they can't or don't want a dish on their wall will finally have a choice.

Apparently, it will also include a Freeview tuner, so that should end the current situation with VM where channels on Freeview (like Freesports) aren't available to paying customers! Of course, this would need an aerial, but since DSO I've seen people receive excellent reception even with indoor aerials.

I think that this could be the biggest threat to cable TV since the introduction of satellite television in the 1980's.
