To be honest, I think Vodafone is going to be more interested than you might think. I have a suspicion that Vodafone is running a bit scared.
With the EE+BT and O2+EE merger, Vodafone is going from one of the biggest to one of the smallest in a relatively short period of time. Short term they're fine, but long term it's going to be interesting to see how they remain competitive against what are, frankly, giants. Diversifying into a large cable company makes a hell of a lot of sense when you think about it.
I know nothing really, though.
