I've said it once, I'll say it again - it's a joke how little access you're supposed to have to a telecommunications line coming in to your house! This is the sort of thing the GPO were renowned for!
Wanting to receive channels on an unauthorised piece of equipment is not a crime and certainly isn't immoral.

actually the OP didnt make it clear if he wanted every channel or not & he may have just said FTA so that he wouldnt get banned. as for using unauthorised equipment while its not illegal it breaks VM's T&C

Also, perhaps I'm missing the relevance of Sky showing codes on the screen during football matches, but these would be aimed I believe at those trying to use domestic subs in public premises (pubs/clubs), whereby a Sky spy would get the card disabled. Sky Italia certainly were doing this successfully.
Since only Sky can officially supply the pubs, Virgin would have no need for this. Though they have put up channels that only illegal boxes would find, with a message aiming to scare the dimmest of cable pirates into paying for their services.

yes thats correct
