The silence from ntl makes me think that this 'issue' lies on ntl's side rather than Sky's, I can't see any other reason for it.

They did communicate it to us over a year ago (I think) I recieved a letter stating they were in negotiations with Sky over bringing Sky Active style services to cable, this was just after BMR1.
So presumably these negotiations are still on going, presumably Sky are not wishing to pay for Space on ntl, yet the are willing to pay SES Astra to space to get more customers on their platform............Interesting.........and Anti Competative.
If Skys Content and Service provider divisions were seperated this is something that wouldnt happen, Sky Sports has other motives, to get Sky Digital more customers. Sky Sports core business should be to get as many customers for Sky Sports.........no matter what the platform.
