My only comment on all of this is the same question I have asked many times but not had a satisfactory answer to.

Earlier this year, Telewest announced a speed increase, ntl followed suit, and were accused of copying them. Fair enough. I'll accept that for the sake of argument.

ntl have now announced a speed increase, and this time Telewest followed suit. Yet again I have been told that ntl are simply copying Telewest. My question, in two parts, is: Why is the exact same situation viewed entirely differently this time round, and how can ntl have been copying Telewest BOTH times?
