As far as I am aware, if you use Sky Multiroom (regardless of whether you use any premium rate stuff), you need a phone line, but it does not have to be BT. If you have multiroom, and don't have each box connected to the phone, Sky will just charge the full price for any extra boxes. This is done to stop people getting multiroom deals, then giving a box to friends/family.

If you don't use Sky Multiroom, and don't use any premium rate stuff, then you may not need a phone line (although I don't know if Sky need to send something to activate the box).
