Paul you are saying that channel re-numbering will be chaotic and at best only of real interest to people such as thoses the frequent this board.

Yet there is a presidence of a major resorting of 'channels' that were 'written' into peoples heads. I bring your attention to the great frequency changes that took place during the late 80's and 90's of BBC Radio.

The customers were not calling for it but for the future benefit of the BBC radio stations the change was made.

NTL will need to change the channels at some point in the future. It will have a game plan for doing it, it won't be to everyones liking but hey that wouldn't be the NTL we love if it got everything right straight of the bat!
