To be honest, if you read all the information available at the time of the "Spiderman" flyer NTL were not saying that "anyone" could download the Spiderman movie. If "you" was given permission to download the film by the copyright holders then it was quite legal for you to do so. If you did not have their permission then it was illegal for you to do so. Advertising can suggest certain things are possible but you have to look at every aspect to see if it is possible for "you" to do the things legally. |
Except they had a picture of the latest Spiderman movie on that same flyer that was telling people they could use their BB service to download movies.
