But if you lived say in Lambeth, South London, and paid the same, but had no air conditioning, electric windows, power steering, and the engine only went at a tenth of the speed of what you would get if you bought it in Manchester, you wouldn't be too happy if someone told you... Oh.. the big engines are free, and so is the power steering , electric windows etc. etc. - to those most everywhere in the country, but if you happen to live in certain parts of London and still pay the same money... well... tough!
Maybe you should chill out and try and understand what really is ****ing people off about ntl: instead of talking crap in its defence.

Like the analogy, but thats not quite true is it.
Broadband is a paid option in Manchester or London (where availible).
If you cannot get Digital, but only analogue you pay less.
So if your on digital and do not have the latest software it is not like saying you don't have aircon power steering a lower powered engine.
You still get the same primary tv content delivered in a virtually identical manner, you just dont get eTV.
More like saying you get climate control on your Manchester car and Air con on your London car.
