thx handyman

it would be interesting to know how many of NTL's subscriber base uses analogue tv services.

I'm aware that it's the government's intention to switch off analogue anyhow within the next few years, but I would guess that in reality trying to predict that is akin to them saying we "will/might/have a referendum/dunno/won't (select an answer)" on joining the Euro. If it was set in stone that might help NTL make that kind of decision.
Personally, stress personally, I would happily live without all the radio stations as I want TV not radio but I am sure the radio services are very popular with a lot of customers, and I assume they consume negligible bandwidth anyway.
