The more providers the more expensive it is for those of the "must have access to everything" mindset. The other two aren't going to lower their prices to keep the overall cost the same just because a third provider comes to the market.
Indeed they do, and they will probably not alter their position on that, either.

If Amazon bought out the Sky or BT share, there would still be only two main providers.

Indeed, there is no absolute evidence either way. That's why your constant aggressive denials that it will ever happen is so inappropriate. To infer that companies like Amazon could not do this to suit their own objectives is frankly laughable.

I am not saying it WILL happen, because I don't have that information. I am saying that I believe it may well happen, based on the trends and media information that is out there. The cost of doing so is not a problem for Amazon or the other big global players.

Read the posts again. I said I thought it could be either the last round or the 2022 round. Twisting it, as usual.
