The truth is the vast majority of lines are over 2km.
The vast majority of people will not get 16mbit on skys service.
The vast majority of people will not get 7.15mbit on BTs service.
Some people will get very good speeds on sky, I have never said otherwise.
It is more of a gamble then cable unless you already know for sure how other lines perform on your postcode.
Sky is cheap and probably the best value adsl service around providing you in one of their LLU areas.
So thats my viewpoint it isnt entirely negative at all but realistic.

My points exactly - Sky's upto 8MB is misleading to most of the general public.
