    Does self-scanning 6 beers from a supermarket but putting 8 in your trolley also appeal? What about driving without insurance? Or letting people buy you rounds of drinks but not buying a round yourself?

    Slippery slope from being money conscious to being a thief with everyone who knows you thinking you're a twat.

    But do you steal from supermarkets and avoid paying for car insurance? And if not, why not?

    I got pissed off paying like £100 pm for Sky and BT, so I went down this road instead.

    We don’t have fibre as yet here, although it’s coming, so I get the occasional buffering, but if I have trouble watching a game on Sky there’s a dozen other channels showing it too. Bein is usually good

    Of course not but mainly because the required technology isn't available to make me invisible to be able to do that. But the technology exists for me to watch whatever I like anonymously without fear of reprisals. :)

    Need to look into internet options yet. Currently with Virgin and they don't let you have just internet and I don't want a landline (Got one atm because it makes it cheaper, never plugged a phone in though)

    It's a little unstable with my current provider.

    You preferably need WiFi with good speed. I’m pretty sure my service would work almost flawlessly if I had fibre optic with good speed. As it is it’s pretty good and I only get 12-13 meg ADSL.

    If you’re going down that road I’d recommend the Mag box. If it’s connected by Ethernet it works best,

    With me I have kids at uni/college a Mrs with online businesses so need more than decent internet.

    They maybe ****s, to some, but VM are the best from what I've had.

    No chance I'm paying for all that stuff.

    Rather go out, radio, freeview occasionally.

    Can you get that over here though?

    Some of the internet tv services in Spain are brilliant. My sister has something like that and the place I rented in Lo Pagan had it.

    Crime against greedy conglomerates doesn't count in my book.

    So <£2.50 a week for netflix/prime etc is unacceptably high in your book?

    Why pay? I'm not stealing them just diverting the signal if you like.
