I'm a member of a couple of techie sites where there is a higher than average interest in cable tv/broadband on account of its (how you say..) stealability, and the majority of members are happy to see someone stand up to sky & see what happens. Sky wanted Virgin to pay 3p/customer/day more (which if I remember correctly is £38M pa) and remove sky 1 etc. from their basic lineup, so all customers would have to pay more to see sky 1 etc.

I personally pay for virgin/ntl services & am thinking of taking their 2 for 1 deal for mobile & broadband. I have been on their broadband for 4y3months & after the 1st two months of them being useless I have had an excellent solid service. Sky will never be able to achieve the bandwidth of fibre, and people seem to forget they need to factor in a BT line when they make their service comparisons.
