Yes BT own MAAF, they bought them 3 years ago.

BT's own products, MAAF and Plusnet are aimed at different markets. BT have nearly 5 million customers on their BT Total product so must be doing something right somewhere along the line. No point in dropping your prices if the sheeple will pay it.
I guess the OP felt that they were educating those that do not read the small print of who owns what website, so that they knew if they switched from BT to madasfish, they were still going with a BT owned company? Just a thought.

I guess its a bit like the out of town PC World/Dixons/Currys stores often being clumped together, people think they can choose to avoid one of those stores if they do not like the company and, for one reason or another wish to 'vote with their £' and shop at one of the others, not knowing that in fact all 3 are owned by Dixons Groups plc.
