I asked one of the guys last night who's heavily involved in Broadband support and new products from an early stage about it, he didn't know what the hell I was on about!
He agreed with me that he could see no sound reason or gain in this product, and actually said it sounds like the old Yes TV product we decided was too much bother, although he did mention that there was talk of ntl releasing a press statement to pour some cold water on BT's statement about launching VOD over ADSL. He was very suprised when I told him a company had been named, and he said "are you sure it's nothing to do with ntl VOD via ADSL over the BT network for off-net customers" (something he possibly wouldn't be directly involved with)
I said no, dont think so they are talking about Liberate software and the set-top box!
Very strange
