I just used 95% as an example, it could just as easy be 99.5% as I don't work for NTL and don't know the figures. There is no logical reasoning that would suggest that heavy users are early adaptors or long standing customers. I would think it more likely that heavy users are quite new customers who haven't got tired of trying to download the entire internet yet.
