Best thing about the election was that SKY now will not be taken over by FOX. I know Murdoch owns both but he can not subsidise the company and prop it up with Fox money. Walmart can not use its money to prop ASDA up even though they own both.Nezza Faz wrote:Reading between the lines they've lost between 10% - 15% of subscribers in the last 12 months, mainly due to new streaming options coming like 'Amazon','Netflix',etc. coming onto the scene.
It means people could possibly then "downsize" their choice of channel instead of being compelled to take the full Sports package, which costs a small mortgage.
This would enable both the RFL and Sky to analyse and monitor the tv subscriber users in actual numbers, even gauging the popularity of each of the SL teams at the same time and force the broadcaster to pay more to the RFL, provided the numbers of course stack up in favour of RL viewership.
Its got sent to the merges committee and now without a massive Tory majority it will not get through.
Good day when Murdoch suffers. SKY is a crap service of crap channels at a joke of a price. He uses his media to bash BBC everyday of the week.
Netflix I rather like, Amazon is crap but I do order a lot from them so the Prime is worth the money on just that alone for me.
Tbh most night better entertainment on here than on TV. But its a good day when a money grabbing organisation that slates BBC for everything in his papers has to drop his prices as he has over paid for football. Greed = Greed = less money eventually and now advertisers are pulling ads SKY is in trouble.
About time they dropped prices.
