Re: BT To Invest £1.5 Billion Into Fibre Optic Broadband

BT have "master" cabinets in main roads as do VM, but BT do not have cabinets in every street in towns and cities like VM. If BT had such cabinets, why are they running services over ancient copper telephone wires? BT's cabinets link up different exchanges to each other and link to business' too. They're nothing to do with residential services, not in my area anyway.

BT are just playing games. Sky have said the same thing too.

VM's network was built with private money. VM is not a monopoly provider or a dominate provider in any field, so OFCOM has no powers to demand that VM's network be opened up to other players.
