Please don't speak to me like I'm some kind of tard.

I understand that ntl no doubt should have much lower traffic costs then pipex and plusnet which I think is what you was trying to point out, certianly because they not paying a 3rd party for national traffic and also because of their size they should be able to negotiate lower per mbit pricing for external traffic.
The reason which I expect is behind any future shaping is profit, they are a merged company now and their #1 target will be getting into the black and staying there and then every year that target will increase.
