All these failures occurred once the take over with the very suspicious European cable company occurred who I still have suspicions over about their need to sell etc. but since this company utterly failed to take advantage of their position as second biggest TV provider at the time would we all have been in a stronger position staying as ntl and telewest?
Less threatening
More companies for Sky and bt to deal with
The position of "strength" being with virgin media and Liberty has led to higher bills and more channels being withheld. It's done nothing for us all let's be honest

Nothing will change for the foreseeable future except for higher bills.
