"Strong cumulative showings in a number of categories - including a win for fastest home broadband and a strong showing in the Judges' Choice awards, has resulted in Virgin Media gaining the overall crown."

So winning one category, plus "judges' choice" meant they won best "provider"

So most users don't use any of:

Skype,
Youtube,
iPlayer,
Netflix,
iTunes,
Spotify,
Xbox Live,
In-game chat,
Facebook calling,
Steam,
etc.

then?

Funny how VM are also pushing their own VOIP app...
