You're not far off there. There's obviously no benefit to them from having people leech off what should have been disconnected services, but as I've repeatedly said, there's no question that Virgin do benefit from the people who maintain a minimum subscription and leech the premium channels. It's absolutely correct that Virgin can no longer compete with Sky on their television service, and their reluctance to do so is a matter of public record. Not too long ago, it was even rumored that they were considering throwing in cable TV as a freebie and incentive for people to pick up their internet and phone deals.

I have no respect for hackers who gets cable for free,, number one rule you have to pay at least the minimum subscription to keep the host in business if not they will end up like on digital then you have nothing. I pay my dues, but cant afford to pay £45+ for all the channels thats not worth it.
