I work for www.friction.tv and we have a really interesting video of Becky Hogge, the Executive Director of The Open Rights Group, an organization which exists to preserve and promote your rights in the digital age.
Here she discusses how Virgin Media has sent about 800 letters to customers warning them that they should not be downloading illegal music files via file-sharing sites, and the objections that she has to this cruisade. See the video at:

The Daily Mirror is read by people who think they run the country; the Guardian is read by people who think they ought to run the country; the Times is read by people who actually do run the country; the Daily Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country; the Financial Times is read by people who own the country; the Morning Star is read by people who think the country ought to be run by another country; and the Daily Telegraph is read by people who think it is.
last i hear virgin have reversed they're stance on this- no more letters :icon_thum
mostly due to public pressure organised from here and similair sites
