Absolutely. I'd much rather have 3 HD channels in total than 10Mbs broadband but other customers will be more bothered. Round here there's a lot of aluminium in the ground that means a lot of people can get sub 10Mbs speeds on ADSL (even on 2+), there will be other ultra urban areas in a cabled area in a similar boat. For example I'm pretty close to the exchange but due to the aluminium I could only get 7Mbs. A mate gets only about 5Mbs but he's not cabled. A neighbouring exchange is so poor that it only has 2 LLU operators (1 until recently). Analogue is the biggie but that's not happening totally till 2010.

I really mean they can get on with 50Mbs so the CEO can stop blabbering on about broadband and how we're "bandwidth constrained" .
