I have to agree with Kush on this one. I would love to see the <deleted> in India try and deal with the flood of calls which would occur as a result of a letter being sent to everyone customer stating that:

"Starting on Wednesday we're changing the naming convention we use in our network to help differentiate between the domain which hosts the IP address ranges allocated to our customers and the domain which hosts our websites.

This will likely only impact those of you who have customised network server configurations which rely on this DNS name, such as remote server access control lists, as you will need to update your settings. If you don't know what this means, then it's unlikely you will see any impact.

In technical terms, the IP addresses will no longer fall within the virginmedia.com DNS domain, but will soon resolve to the virginm.net domain. This change will be rolled out across our network between the 16th and 25th of October."
