The price of Sky and BT phoneline is roughly the same as the equivalent NTL DTV package.
BT phoneline allows you to use many providers for phone calls, most of which are cheaper than NTL. ADSL may be available depending on your BT exchange and your distance from it.
Whilst the Sky contract does say that you have to have the digibox connected to the phoneline for the first 12 months, many customers do not keep it connected and Sky never contact them. Some only connect it occasionaly to pay for PPV movies and events.
Sky DTV doesn't get affected much by the weather, at least mine and my friends and relatives doesn't. Weather affected my NTL DTV pictures more.
Sky offers you Sky+ but a similar offering is unlikely to be offered by cable companies in the foreseeable future.
Sky interactive works as does its seven day EPG (3 days on NTL).
