Sky agree new deal with satalite company
I see Sky have agreed a deal with satalite owners to continue providing signal until at least 2039 meaning for now Sky Q will continue. Good news for people like me who like to have a box to record on as I hate having to search for programs on demand or catch up

Almost like Sky doesn’t think linear broadcast TV is going away any time soon …

Re: Sky agree new deal with satalite company

Re: Sky agree new deal with satalite company
I'd expect it to be closer to 2031 under this deal. The previous deal was signed a couple of years ago and was a five year deal. It wouldn't be in Sky's interest to sign for much longer, but they are likely to roll it over in a year or two's time.

Re: Sky agree new deal with satalite company
I have seen notes (probably speculation) that it was extended to 2032, this seems more likely than 2039.
I suspect Sky are worried that once they stop Satellite (and recording) peolpe will have no reason to stick with them.
