Yes, this brings us neatly back to my point about how Virgin's own accounting problems have far more of an effect on paying subscribers than cable piracy would have.

Stealing a car is a serious criminal offence. Stealing cable TV is not. Just look at TraxData's story about going to a rough street to disconnect as many as 24 offenders. He didn't go with search warrants and the police, because it's not worth it, unless trying to catch people selling the equipment or services associated with piracy. I think there was even a thread in this very forum some time ago about someone who had phoned his cable company to report a neighbour, and was told they weren't interested,
