I've never understood these bandwidth 'issues' that people keep mentioning ?

Surely if NTL own their own network and their customers use their own newserver (thus never leaving their network) then its far cheaper for them than not providing a newsserver and thereby forcing customers to use an external server (Easynews/Giganews/Newshosting etc) and then pulling the bandwidth from outside their network which must cost them more money ?
