i'm not from the UK so let me know if this sounds correct. Sky is a cable TV provider and if you subscribe to their service at 50 pounds a month you can use this sky player on your 360 at no additional cost?

i don't have cable cause i don't particularly care for television especially at the price but this is certain a nice little perk for those that do.

No

Its a sattelite service and you dont need to subscribe at £50 per month to use this.  (I do, as I have SkyHD multiroom.. so this will be free for me).  But I think the cheapest you can get this for is £15 per month.

Sky isnt just any tv provider... they are biggest provider, by a mile, of pay tv.  They have the rights to many sporting events.

I wouldn't say sky is the biggest. I would say it's the only one that is actually worth paying for.
