I'm led to believe that once they realised that they had overpaid and been left with the scraps from this rights round bt did seriously consider reselling some of what they had, before they decided to use it to drive broadband subs, something that was never on the cards until that point.

I'm not really sure how clever our strategic bt are being, it just looks to me like they're chucking all their money in andthen playing the hand they get dealt.
