Virgin likely to lose 800 customers by colluding with BPI over file-sharing
Thousands of UK broadband users who share music tracks illegally may receive letters warning them of the consequences. Music trade body the BPI claims to have already identified and contacted about 800 Virgin Media customers who have been sharing copyrighted material (this despite it being impossible to tell what files are being shared). Virgin has agreed to send the letters to those customers, informing them that what they are doing is illegal.
