I have had the same view for a long time, I have never seen ofcom take action against a cable company in this country, they seem to be in place to make it as easy as possible for ntl and telewest. The fact both cable companies have monopolies on their networks is astounding, look at the usa and you can see the cable development their is far more progressed due to inter cable competition. Please dont mention AOL I know they provide over NTL but they are hardly doing any pushing.

When the 2 do merge and there is different products in different areas will ofcom do anything will anyone do anything, will the press pick up on it this remains to be seen.
