It's just frustrating to watch a company like NTL, which is not hobbled by the same raft of regulatory restrictions as BT, having to keep up with BT instead of it being the other way round. It was not always the case. BT's 'Another Broadband Briton' Press ad campaign was an outright joke because BB has taken off in the UK in spite of them, not because of them. When I signed up for my NTL broadband the majority of non cable customers in the UK didn't have any broadband choices at all.
A healthy market needs NTL, and it needs NTL to do what it did at the outset - lead the market and drive the agenda, not be forced into knee-jerk reactions to the announcements of its competitors. A price reduction will be very welcome but the circumstances which brought it about are worrying.
