True, however, IIRC, weren't BT (along with AT&T) one of the companies involved in the development of ADSL? Didn't they then licence the invention to other countries, while doing nothing with it in this country? TBH, they are still dragging their heels

I do think that if one organisation can be said to have held back Broadband in this country, it's BT.
