Well the reason I guess it was so cheap was mainly as the Main Telewest building was near enough up the road and the council had a lot of services already through them as it was (phones etc). Now the sad part was that this 45mbit line was installed to give TWO people in a library internet access by the way - so you can see they would not scratch the surface of that 45mbit line. I asked at the time (as had good relations with TeleWest there) if i lived in the area could i also have such a thing as a home user and the answer was "Yes" - im guessing the same applied when NTL trialed that Fibre to that london place and one guy had like 155mbit line all to himself - which never lasted but good while it did.
I think NTL maybe should start thinking about people close enough to a central exchange (as was the case with Telewest then) to offer a more flexible service in terms of speed vs price and maybe have more than one product on the table to choose from, such as light user, heavy user etc...
