Except it wouldn't even have to impact the customer's home connection as Virgin could just provision more).
Not entirely sure the triple-play operator Sky would want to share their WiFi network with the quadruple-play operator Virgin Media's triple-play customers.

Nothing in it for Sky and they just improved their competitor's service.

I expect to see Sky customers able to access VM's London Underground WiFi shortly though in return for access to The Cloud.
