NTL will not lose a major amount of people due to a cap, they are much more likely to lose more over perceived problems within the network, far more people are interested in a reliable ISP over an uncapped one.
It's more serious for NTL though if someone leaves Wanadoo or BT they usually just go to another ADSL provider. But if someone leaves NTL broadband where do they go? AOL on NTL? It's the only option and if you don't want AOL on NTL then you have to get ADSL and most people that go that route will switch to BT/SKY for their phone and digital services. So if NTL loses broadband customers they will also likely lose the customer for telephone and digital as well.
