    Sharesies is making fun of Sky again. At least we got their attention now. Been seeing sky posts daily on sharesies page and we are starting to convert some of them.

    Someone really needs to take a hit by pushing the idea of a takeover on sharesies page. GO GO GO...

    My sky has been a winner.In our house we now have another decoder so another $25 per month.
    Young people grow up with it and when they set up home so they get sky installed.
    Seems the churm rate is very low.
    How much 10 years makes a difference. Maybe in another 10 sky wouldn't be here? Either won't exist at all or as part of a different parent company? I still stand by the fact that sky is too important to let die. So that's why takeover is likely. Can't keep limping forever without big backing.

    Covid will have a effect on Sky with the sports side of things. But as they've show the churn rate is very low. Most people are still happy with it. Neon will get a whole different demographic.

    They can't do new installs. That's the only disadvantage.

    Hopefully the stock drops back down to 12.


    RISK ON!

    Thoughts?
    Watching with interest to see if your head rolls. I am in as deep as I want at this stage just walking the tightrope between greed and fear.

    The sooner they release Sky Go as a stand-alone offering the better in my view.

    Problem solved.

    No that is Sky Sport NOW.

    Sky Go is the companion app for satellite subs. Allows you to stream traditional sky.

    They recently added functionality to allow users to Chromecast to the big screen (previously you could only watch on laptop, smartphone, tablet...).

    So the next step is to offer it as a stand-alone product (not just a ‘freebie’ for satellite subs).

    Martin should offer me a contract to be the Product Owner for Sky Go. I would whip that product into shape in no time.

    But apparently begging for a job at the last AGM and humping his leg while crying was not a smart move...
