Lets see if VM and Sky can be the aggregators that they claim to be and offer all the streamers on their service under their own interface. The fact that it's taken VM this long to offer Amazon Prime, doesn't seem to bode well in this regard. BUT...

Comparing tv channels with streamers is like comparing apples to oranges. They are not the same thing. Unless Sky run one of their "special" channels, you've never been able to access all Star Wars films before outside buying the DVDs.

I think people will mix and match streamers and take different ones each month, depending on what new shows/films are on the services.
