Yes they do, but the claim i illegally downloaded it, i now owe them compensation for loss of revenue because I downloaded this. What exactly is the loss of revenue here? They still sold it to my broadcaster who I pay my monthly subscription to. If i download Britneys latest album and don't buy it the shop is out $10 and the artist say $1. If I download 'The Guardian' and don't go to see it in a theatre or buy the DVD people are out cash, but as long as my DD to NTL or whoever is taken then they have all the revenue they were going to get for the sale of that show. What is the financial loss and thus restitution payable for that loss in the event of downloading TV that in time you would be subscribed to?
