un capped is the only way that any of this will work
Think about it.

Company A can supply a film via the internet for £2.

NTL can supply the same film via the internet for £2.

What incentive is there for anyone to use the NTL service?

Now if NTL supply the film free but you have to pay £2 for the extra broadband usage that it needs then it costs you the same but ensures that you use NTL rather than company A. It would cost £2 for the film plus £2 for the extra broadband usage if you used company A. Result is that this sort of pricing structure provides more profit for NTL which can be used for upgrading infrastructure and reducing debt.
