You split it down. There is already a sub-company within ntl called ntl National Networks Ltd.
They would own and maintain the National Fibre Network down to say Head End/ Hub level.
ntl:Home/Business would own the regional Networks that would be maintained by COBI.
Just a theory but very workable.

Seperating internet, TV and telephony would appear to be going against the way that the industries are moving. All three services will probably be supplied via IP in the not too distant future.

I don't think its a quesiton of seperating the products provided, just the ownership of the networks.
ntl National Networks Ltd would become, as they already are, a National Carrier the same as, Kingston (Torch), Energis, Worldcom, Level 3, etc etc. ntl:Home would be customer of National Networks.
