I've heard about this

village: we want broadband!
bt: get us 50 people to register interest and we'll sort it.
Village: hang on... right, ok!
bt: no, we need 100 people to register interest.
Village: (after publicity campaign) okay!
bt: actually we need 200 people...

I understand that that happens

but I live 3 miles from the center of a city of more than 1.5m people.

I've got ADSL downstairs, I just want cable.

sounds about right

but I was referring to the fact that it's highly unlikely that any new cable is going to be laid so that Supermoore can get cable broadband.
