So how bad is this stealing services with rogue boxes. Anybody got some numbers to the severity of this problem.

What effect is this doing to us who have purchased services legitemately.

However on side note we do have differentiate what is serrious offences such as chipped dodgy boxes and not paying for it to VM I would say this the main issue many would be angry.

I would think if some perpetrators just use TV tuner card to computer. That would be to me minor offence if they already have suscribed service and want those subscribed channels on the tuner card or even be part of media centre.

I have DVB-C tuner in my TV. I would love this to tune to subscribed channels and work in tandem with the freeview box with channels what are not broadcasted on VM (sky three) etc.

To me this would be convenience but it would be technically illegal if managed to do it. But again I consider this a minor infringement as you already subscriber.
