Whatever happened to...
 
Video on demand? Rolled out in a couple of areas ages ago, then... nothing.

Perhaps on hold while they see the results in the areas they have done so far.

the facts that there are only a handful of people that have it at the moment, kind of kicks it in the ass really. Especially as it was pushed around as a "Massive step forward", well it is i guess for the four people who are using it.

So because only a few areas have it at the moment it is "another project that ntl completely ****ed up" hmm.... no!

The equipment is being installed in other areas at the moment, but it is a long and difficult process. I believe some other areas have now had the software upgraded needed and are just waiting for a switch on.

I don't think (in fairness to ntl :erm: ), that they have actually launched VOD officially yet, & that they are only trialling it in certain areas.

[Edit]-Not so much of a trial, as a 'staggered' rollout, but I pretty sure they haven't actually announced it as a nationally available service/product.
