I think it comes from Aramaic and roughly means "He who owns the SKY(.NZ) owns the world..."

That sounds like corporate doublespeak. But there is a lot of that these days

Surprisingly restrained article from Mr Keall.
I am surprised that Showtime have pulled their content from Stan across the ditch. It will be interesting to see how they get on.
Personally, I don't see Showtime, HBO, FX etc doing as well by all going it alone. There are just too many services for people to subscribe to, and the costs to the consumer quickly mount.
Netflix is dominant and seen as a 'must have' by many households. Disney+ has done exceedingly well - but they have a very unique proposition. Anyone with kids will definitely fork out the $9.99 per month for the content.
If Showtime were to ditch Sky, can they really expect to get many subscribers in this market? I don't think so.
Consumers are well served right now with NEON for $13.95 per month - aggregating HBO, Showtime, FX and more.
It does also highlight how important it is for Sky to further diversify revenue streams ASAP. At least one of their 'key entertainment partners' is bound to try go it alone at some point. It may be an expensive lesson, and the partner may come back (note Disney have done a deal with Sky UK...) but in the meantime it would leave Sky exposed unless they have other viable revenue streams to help weather the streaming wars.

Although it did get me thinking... the move to take Showtime away from Nine...and given they own Ten Network in Aussie...
If you look at things in juuuuust the right way... it could be a signal that...
VIACOM ARE ABOUT TO OUTBID INFRATIL FOR SKY TV NZ!!!!

We generally only have one subscription, very very occasionally two as now (Sky Sport and Netflix) So my better half has things she wants to watch....and we will discontinue one and start the other and watch the menu selected. Doesn't seem to be enough time in a day to watch/justify multiple services.
