In another vain though I'm sure I read on another thread that VM were doing this because at present they are upgrading the network, which apparently will not be completed till late 2009, and they are trying to find ways of keeping the whole network up and running.

Trouble is, whatever upgrades are currently in planning / progress will inevitably be in need of new updates by then. The pace at which internet use is growing and will continue to grow will continue to outstrip the capacity of network providers to develop. Whilst some form of temporary management may be justified it appears Virgin Media are bent on such policies for the long term. That doesn't reflect the changing demands of the internet user when more and more media is being streamed.
