You can't just state the fact that Australia has been offering naked DSL without taking a quick look to find out why they can. Unlike the UK Aus telcos charge like wounded bulls for everything including limited data allowance DSL, for example an average consumer 'naked' deal here is £50 for 15GB limit on a 8MB connection (exchange rate as of 6/08, also compared with a BT provided exchange (BT = Telstra, similar kind of issues). Now compare that with the UK ADSL prices and add the line rental on top, who comes out cheaper, UK or Aus?
