Thought this might be of interest to some.

Yep, very interesting!

I imagine that 'jacob' will be along in a minute to say that this proves, beyond all doubt, that SKY is going to return to the island

The numbers are huge. If they are correct and you imagine say 10% of those non UK users would be willing to pay say £6pm, around what services like netflix charge, then by my calculation that would be an income for the BBC of £36 million per month and annual of £432 million !
