Well, the bit in bold may well be true. VM will be able to get a better price if BT have sucked this for all its worth just prior to the first day of broadcasting. They will know that if people haven't jumped ship by then, they probably won't, so they'd rather get a reduced price from VM from that time than nothing at all.

VM will then appear to be an attractive platform for new business.

The bit not in bold is ridiculous. Why would VM sign up to that?
