Also lets not forget even with the cheapest ADSL Service of £18.50 a month, you have to pop the BT line rental of £9.50 on top, whether or not you use a telephone so the cheapest ADSL Service in my eyes is £28.
LOL.

I don't appear to see the many areas that you say NTL are catching up with. There is VOD of course which you say is .... coming soon, maybe. We all know what NTL mean by that.

Quite a pathetic attempt to paint the NTL service as being so perfect and its competitors so inadequate. If you keep repeating along these lines you may even start to believe that NTL are as good as you say.

I don't know why you and others knock Sky so much. If it wasn't for Sky what choice of channels would you think there would be on NTL? Sky dishes I can put up with, I hardly ever notice them even though there are many about. What I do notice is the scarred roads and pavements where cable has been laid and the ugly black wiring running across many rendered house fronts where the cable installers haven't even tried to follow a less obtrusive path.
