Sky Fail To Reach Agreement With Discovery

Looks like they've sorted their differences according to the Discovery website.

Important Update: To the Best Fans in TV, Thank You



We wanted you to be the first to know that we have reached an agreement, which means all your favourite channels and programmes will be staying on Sky.
We couldn’t have done it without you.
Your support over the past few days has been truly amazing and we look forward to bringing you more of the TV you love in the weeks, months and years to come.

Virgin played this "game" a few years back and came a cropper. Can Discovery afford to remove themselves from 10 million+ homes? I think not.
