It wouldn't be a good thing for cable, it would spell the end of cable. They would never pay back their debts if they had loads of companies using their network. VM need the exclusitivity and the customers in order to meet debt repayments. I can't them being forced to open up their network to the likes of BT unless their debt is written off some how. The government would recognise that the company would certainly go under if they don't keep their monopoly and have to keep their debt, it's certainly no where near the same as BT where it was the government who funded their infrastructure in the first place.
