This is a bit of a first world issue to be fair, but I'm interested in if I could reduce the costs a little.

I have Sky Plus HD with basically everything, but of main interest are the "core" channels and Sky Sports (only watch the football) and Sky Movies, again not a rabid watcher but it's nice to have it there.

I also have BT Sport (again solely for football) via BT who I use for my broadband, on a BT phone line.

The kicker is I actually watch most stuff on my PC/tablet with the physical Sky box and TV only getting a couple of hours usage a day.

Everyone seems to be in cahoots to steal other customers, deals are "brand new customers only" and there is no loyalty for existing customers.

Interested to know what combinations other people are using.

I just have sky.

Worked out miles cheaper doing it all through one. On last renewal we looked at just having internet and getting a couple more fire sticks to just stream everything. Worked out at about £35 for internet and line rental or £43 for full sky package minus movies/sport. Seemed a tad pointless losing all the tv for £8.
