Can you really see any company agreeing to a request like "if you do anything new in the future, you must share it with us"?

Sky still show the odd La Liga match online only sometimes in the week and call it Sky sports extra.
It could be this being made available via Red Button and rebranded.

Still not seen any confirmed info on MUTV HD launching on Virgin Media.
Only seen rumours so far that MUTV are rumoured to be in talks with Virgin Media.
