Here, here. I firmly believe if the UK wants to move forward and be a 

leader when it comes to the Internet, it needs to be made much less 

expensive for people to use it. I still shake my head that the "free" 

access companies are doing so well -- who cares about a 8 pound 

subscription fee in comparison to a 100+ pound per month phone bill 

(and I wish mine was even that low). I think BT is making the country 

less competitive in this arena by refusing to act more quickly to get 

call rates down.


I've always wanted to put up a site on the topic, but time doesn't 

allow. But I'll happily contribute the tag line I had in mind to anyone's 

effort: "Free me, BT!"
