In the sort of areas where VM are competing with FTTC I suspect that the distance from subscriber to cab isn't going to be all that great. For instance I'm ~ 300m from my FTTC cabinet and have a 60Mbps estimate. I'm actually nearer than that to the next cabinet along though. I have seen mention of someone being about a mile (iirc) from their cab but I'd lay odds that there is no cable service there.
