Broadband thru the sewers

BBC NEWS | Scotland | Broadband comes up from the sewer


Well, I have heard said that ntl's Broadband is excrement (I paraphrase), although personally I am 99% satisfied with my service.

Anyway scottish water's initiative to follow european practice and make use of existing sewerage pipes to run cable along seems a splendid idea. The fact that they will also rent this out (well their partner Fibrelink will) to all comers, allows choice for the customer and competition to improve broadband facilities in Scotland.
