I think it's more about NTL choosing not to have an uncapped service than being unable to do so. AOL has just taken a different view. I would imagine that AOL-via NTL customers are small enough in number for it to make little difference anyway.
TBH I'm not sure why anyone would get AOL by cable when they can get it direct from NTL. Even with a cap, NTL's speeds are faster, and soon to be even more so, while AOL is apparently offering a measly 512k, presumably so as not to annoy their ADSL customers.
