You mustn't forget that the only reason some VM subscribers are lost to Sky is that Sky offer SA. So why would VM not agree to it?

Live TV is on the cable service anyway. Why would we particularly want that service duplicated on the Now TV Entertainment Pass app that I have suggested?

If you meant live Sky Atlantic and ITV Encore, why would there be a need to see those channels live when those programmes are displayed as part of a programme library that you just click on to view at a time that suits you, with no ads?

Only for the additional content for which Amazon don't own the rights. All the films it is able to get the rights to and its own original content are free once you subscribe to the Prime service.
your missing point OB sky own nowtv they would have to agree to it VM cant just add it without sky agreeing and again sky dont want anyone else to have SA at all
