Ah - that must be a technical term!
I think you mean it's not been actively promoted. Funnily enough, ntl used to relay EIGHT free Music Choice channels, but these are now silent, literally. The audio feed is gone, but the silent carrier is being modulated, and stereo encoded! For those areas that do not allow the use of rooftop aerials, ntl's FM hook-up was part of the deal, and I doubt they'll be able to remove it without adequate consultation.
Seriously though, NTL should either offer a service, or withdraw it. As it hasn't been withdrawn, then as a paying customer using the service, surely I have a right to expect they will continue to maintain it until the service is withdrawn? That said, the inability to report a channel drifting off-tune is most annoying,especially when ntl staff attempt to tell me I can only get radio via the STB!
