That's what BT are doing.

They do not offer the best broadband unless the only thing you do with your broadband is download large binaries over FTP.
That still leaves the other 49% which need to be reached, especially since BT would reach 66-90% of the UK

BT is reaching customers outside the cable network, but so should VM

Virgin does need to improve its broadband, starting with a 200mbp service
