As much as I agree with what you're saying here, a more existential threat to Sky would be something like losing the TV rights to the Premier League which is arguably the crown jewel of their entire business model. If Netflix or some other streamer took that away, that would be alarming for Sky.

Nah that's getting spun out as "Discovery Global". The deal today is Netflix buying Warner Bros including its film and television studios (HBO Max and HBO) whereas Discovery Global (Discovery, Quest, TNT etc) is now a new publicly-traded company which Netflix isn't buying

Tbh, I winced at the £75 price for a physical copy. That’s more expensive than a brand new PS5 or Xbox Series X game. Maybe it’s me but I’m quite shocked at the high prices and I feel like they’ve shot themselves in the foot
