Why is it irrelevant? Demon are owned by the Thus group. Thus group are making losses, some of which can probably be traced to Demon.

Regarding your profit statement. While I do agree profit isn't everything it is rather important to any company.

How do telewest manage to offer unmetered services on higher speeds using the same technology?
Based on what I have read on this forum (mainly from Ignition, but from other sources too), Telewest are able to offer the increased speeds because they run their equipment past it's maximum limits. They also have a smaller network, not all of which will be able to offer the increased speeds.

Why do NTL refuse to consider alternative ways of making money and kurbing 24/7 leechers? (one example if the option was there I would pay £3 a month to not use transperent proxies)

I don't know your browsing/downloading habits, but I suspect the amount it would cost NTL would far exceed the £3 a month from each user if they offered the option to not use transparent proxies. These proxies are their to minimise network use, therefore reduce costs.
