    Sky have started to advertise their prices for these products.
    £18 for one channel.
    £22 for two.
    £26 for three.
    Or all Sky Sports channels for £27.50.

    Of course to get these 'bargains' you must also pay for the basic package, another £22 per month.
    The information comes from Skys site in the UK. Nothing on the Irish site at the moment.
    IMHO far far to expensive.
    Looks like I'll be using my Kodi for a while yet

    It is too expensive. I would definitely take up the Premier League channel, but I want the Golf channel and for the next 12 months will still want their Rugby content, so that's 3 channels. At £26 a month I might as well just keep the whole lot for the sake of £1.50 a month.

    409 – Sky Sports News

    121 – Sky Sports Mix
    A window into the world of Sky Sports, bringing a selection of sports entertainment to all Sky customers.
    Regular live football including La Liga, MLS and international qualifiers as well as a select number of Premier League and EFL matches. As well as support programming that will appeal to kids and family audiences, viewers can also enjoy live golf from Europe and the US, international cricket and much more.

    They mention Rugby twice - on the Sky Sports Arena channel which appears to be the primary channel for Rugby , however they also mention it on the "Main event" channel as "International Rugby Union"

    They don't call out Super Rugby or Pro-12 or the Rugby Championship , so that might mean 2 channels minimum to get all the Rugby if/when it's introduced here.

    At those prices the whole 'change' is a load of waffle.
