Virgin Media is more than just a "cableco" it is a major telecommunications company, and derives a lot of revenue from business and wholesale.

I hope the Liberty Group learn from this.

Virgin Media alone makes up 40% of the new Liberty Groups revenue, considering the number of other companies in the group, it's obvious they are not maximising their potential.

I hope that they learn from VMs success and try to transfer that success across the other companies in the group, rather than the reverse.

But i've seen it happen several times in mergers/ buyouts.
