In my opinion I think Sky using VM to help with 'Sky Broadband' traffic will open up some new avenues...

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 2.

I'm very confident we will see all channels on all platforms eventually.

It's not about seeing things as they are, but think ahead and how the lay of the land will change dramatically.

If there are alternative ways to look at making more money, Sky will do it. Even they will eventually realise when they've dried up the new subs market for exclusive channels.

Sky is in the market of selling TV channels (and maybe boxes?) and they will do whatever they can do that to as many people as possible - even if that means across different platforms.
