Sky were relatively quick off the mark with integrating Netflix into their subscriptions, but VM finally got there sometime later. They may already be negotiating.

Wouldn't rule out a similar deal with VM.

Dingbat wasn't saying it is free. The point being made was that it can be added to packages and billed by Sky - it's called the Ultimate TV add on.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)

Media Boy UK View:

BT and Warner Bros. Discovery did completed their transaction to form a joint sports venture on September 1st 2022. So far BT Sport and Eurosport UK has retain their separate brands.

Will we need to wait until August before we see them being brought together under a single brand?

Interestingly on Sports section on Discovery+ app on Sky it doesn't list Eurosport as channel brand as you would expect.

I only says August due to:

*Sky did launch Sky Sports Football in July in 2017 (I think) - for a start of that season football.
*BT Sport launch all of their channels on August 1st over the years.
*Eurosport did launch Eurosport News on August 1st 1999.

WBD has plenty of brands so I could see Eurosport and BT Sport being replaced by "Discovery Sport" and maybe "Discovery Sport Premium" for some of the former BT Sport channels in the future.
