It could be a case of Virgin still testing how the box performs with other broadband connections before making it more widely available. Having said that, there are very few non-Virgin households capable of getting the 100mb minimum speed for a V6 anyway...
That would be a deployment/operations decision and not a commercial one. The difference being the motivation behind the decision.

You understand that not installing based on the ISP choice of the customer is not any better than configuring a box to only work on a specific ISP? Just shifts the when and how the decision is made the determining factor in the decision....the ISP.....is still the same.
