Well no, Telecoms is deregulated with the likes of Vodafone, UPC and digiweb offering broadband services as well as Eircom. The question is does Sky think it can enter the market and make a profit.

The answer seems to be no at the moment, especially when you consider that they had an opportunity to buy BT's business when they pulled out of Ireland. It remains a possibility though
