To celebrate the launch of the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL in Germany Sky Germany has launched Universal Windows Apps for their Sky Go and Sky Online services. The handsets are also being bundled with two months worth of Sky Online Entertainment and two Supersport day tickets. The apps will come pre-installed on the Windows 10 Mobile handsets.

Sky Online provides flexible and easy to manage access to premium programming from Sky without the long contracts while Sky Go lets users easily take programming with them for offline viewing.

As a long time UK Sky TV subscriber they news is somewhat annoying to me, as the Sky company appears to be offering their services on Windows phones everywhere but in UK. Hopefully the news is a harbinger for the arrival of the same services in my locality.
