Uhhh read it again and digest properly. They are in the best position they have ever been for a cable company and previous to this quarter posted great statistics. This last quarter because of the write off virgin mobile it was a poor quarter.

Oh actually one quick thing about analogue overbuilding. Look how much Virgin spend on advertising. The entire ntl Ex-Videotron London analogue to digital upgrade cost sub-50 million. Is it really that bank breaking? Answer is no but Virgin Media spend a terribly low amount on network overbuild compared with other cablecos. |
No please do. I want to hear you "facts" please because i would like a good laugh i really would. Some of you are so dilluded you really are.
BT got governemtn funding FACT!
Cable funded itself by loans which they are paying back! FACT! How is any of that not facts?! Come please do tell
As for revenue that goes to all different aspects of the business and they wouldn't put all their revenue from their tv channels into upgrading analogue areas. It goes to all different things like investing more into ondemand etc in order to help customer growth.
