Unless they deal with BT?
I'm sure BT would love to get one over on Murdoch
So I need a satellite delivery
U.K. only, I distinctly remember when Murdoch took over Germany's Premier service they got Discovery Networks to sign a golden handshake deal on exclusivity on certain channels so that rival cable firms etc couldnt carry said channels which is sly as *"£@, so I have no faith that Feb 1st will be the day that Discovery find a set of nuts metaphorically speaking.These are, what I consider to be, core channels. Almost every package in Europe/world carries them. For Sky to lose them because of pure greed is unthinkable. There will be riots!
I am guessing this only affects Sky UK and its German and Italian counterparts?

Discovery have already fallen out with Sky Germany and removed Eurosport 1HD from the Sky package! Its now part of the HD+ operation..
Interesting, may explain why Virgin have given free access to SD Sky sports channels for 6 weeks, probably to make up for loss of Eurosport if it happens.
