That way the broadcasting organisation would need to market itself to as wide an audience possible via the widest possible number of carriers. The network side would be competing on a more even keel with BT, VM, etc.

sadly agree entity's become way too big they have so much money they can drag through literally years of court hearings until favourable outcome. Knowing the state aint got infitally funds to take them on.
Therefore due to that alone would we even see them be told to split it. I am sure that would be challenged could the government afford a long winding process high courts.
So I should said there many teeth not just ofcom such as the government willingness to fight a court battle and the courts itself.
Like many this would be acceptable solution but I fear there will be just fine. Sadly the carry on regardless.
Some companies who so huge and clearly got power influence. These super companies its questionable should they be broken up that is for a poll on another thread. I cant make polls anybody could oblige.
