    The whole thing is so futile. The deal will get done.

    If the Comcom block it then there is a God damn conspiracy against Sky.

    In which case Sky should just shut down OSB, put the trucks on trademe.

    And then sign a deal with NEP. I’m thinking 10 years...

    Ok deal, about $20 saved in the first six months compared to if you purchased their standard annual pass.

    Can’t beat the $299 I paid for 12 months though - $25/month. That special deal is long gone.

    The idea that I get from this is that SKY are moving to chase sales and are marketing the company and their product.

    Absolutely, the reality is that Sky need to have much more competitive pricing.

    Gone are the premium entertainment monopoly days - so Sky can’t just keep high bundle prices and trust that people will still pay them for it.

    NETFLIX changed all that, and Spark Sport has added to it too.

    Better products, competitive pricing - everything you would expect to come from a market with healthy competition.

    Consumers will end up better off in the end I think.

    The good news is there is still plenty of money to be made if new products can be positioned correctly. Aggregation will become more and more attractive over time.

    Sky TV is the Top Net Buy recommendation through Macquarie at the moment.
    And this came out in the WSJ yesterday.

    DJ Macquarie Upbeat on Sky TV's Broadband Prospects -- Market Talk



    26 Nov 2020 09:49:41
    2249 GMT - New Zealand satellite TV and streaming company Sky Network Television could reach breakeven on an ebitda basis for its planned broadband service relatively quickly, Macquarie believes. Sky can capitalize on an existing large number of customers and its existing marketing and billing systems while competing on price, the bank says, after building broadband rollout assumptions into its forecasts for Sky. Macquarie expects Sky to start offering broadband to its premium satellite customers in late 1Q of calendar 2021, calling the broadband play a correct decision "albeit many years late." Sky shares are the NZX-50's worst performer this year, down 56%, as investors wait for firmer signs of a business turnaround. (stephen.wright@wsj.com)
