The cap itself ALLOWS for 200GB a month, including off peak downloading. So clearly Nildrim DO think it's viable. Not everyone who leaves NTL will go to nildrim, in fact, i doubt if even half of them COULD get nildrim, i can't here in Northern Ireland.
And as more people sign up to Nildrim, i'm sure they'll use the money wisely to upgrade the networks etc, so that they can make even more money. Unless they learned business strategy from NTL.
Telewest have done it, they did the work first, and will make more money in the long run, because of it. They also don't have the constant problems NTL have (email, newsgroups etc) with faster speeds AND an uncapped service. It's just a shame that when the two companies merge, ntl will be in charge.
