I have to agree. The problem is Disney (a very large provider) purchased Fox (another larger provider), and then proceeded to stop supplying third parties. Perhaps not in present day USA, but in Europe this may be seen as monopolistic behaviour.
Take the example of Rupert Murdoch himself, he tried to purchase the remaining stake in BSKYB on several occasions and was blocked by the reglator who felt that plurality in the media is important. Often you make unterakings to the regulator that you will not shut out third-parties like Disney alledgedly have, in order that you can get the merger sanctioned.
