Will be pretty funny when that happens, people on broadband only, using it for supplementing Freeview and voice services, and VM will probably still give retentions discounts on that as well

This has been my plan for a while, but as I'm in a shared house I've found old habits die hard and people are very, very slow to migrate to TV On Demand via broadband despite numerous advantages. Seems most people who watch TV are happy to sit there and stare at whatever crap it pumps out instead of pressing a few buttons and bringing up the show they want when they want it... seems especially common in anyone over the age of 40.
Although, due to the way VM do their pricing, it usually works out cheaper to have a phone landline even if, as in my case, almost no-one uses it. Why that is the case, I'd love to know: all I've ever used it for is customer service calls as it's free.
