LONDON (Alliance News) - Vodafone Group PLC and British Sky Broadcasting Group PLC have held high-level talks aimed at curbing BT Group PLC?s growing power in the broadband market, The Sunday Times reported, quoting "senior" sources.
It is understood that Sky and Vodafone have discussed striking deals on Sky?s sports and movie channels and collaborating on a high-speed broadband service, the paper said, adding that senior sources said it was unlikely they would build a nationwide fibre network, which would cost several billion pounds.
Sky and Vodafone declined to comment to the paper.
