The so called competition here only serves to make the consumer pay more, e.g. when BT got some of the rights sky didnt reduce the price to reflect they had less games, they actually did the usual annual price rise. But when sky were allowed to bid for all the uk rights, the extra premier league channel was free to sky sports subscribers.

Likewise free to air CL games that were on itv are now gone, now on BT, and sky also lost the CL. So CL fans who pay for sky now have to also pay for BT sport.

Is clearly not sustainable as we will eventually get to the point it will cost £100 just for the sports channels, and income inflation is nowhere near at the level of home entertainment inflation.
As I've said previously, prices will only continue to rise as long as people are prepared to pay silly money.
