Yet if the cable companies were to die off because of their precarious financial state and lack of protection, BT would have no competition, and, therefore no incentive to install technologies such as fibre to the home.

Why spend millions upgrading copper to fibre, when they can just try and carry on squeezing more bps from copper?

I would love to see FTTH. I just don't think that BT would bother unless they had competition. In fact, I am sure they wouldn't.
