Rupert Murdoch may not be your cup of tea (he isn't mine either), but he doesn't make people sign up to the services provided by his companies and nor am I aware of anything to suggest that people have been conned, as you suggest.

If people want to buy into the dream of being able to watch of Burnley v Southampton on a Monday evening then it's their choice - nobody elses.

Of course people are influenced to make choices, but they don't have to do it.
The choice to watch sport,ie. football, cricket, golf, rugby,motor racing ,NFL[ffs] is entirely up to the customer if you subsribe to Sky/BT/Virgin or don't watch any sport [or very little] if you dont subsribe All these companies use the same techniques to extract your cash
