Virgin defends file-sharing campaign »
From the BBC:
Virgin Media has told Newsbeat there is “absolutely no possibility” of taking legal action or banning internet users as part of a campaign against illegal file-sharing on its broadband network.
The firm has sent 800 letters to customers over the last month warning that they should not be using “unauthorised peer-to-peer networks” like BitTorrent or Limewire to swap copyright songs.
The individuals were identified by the music industry body, the BPI, as part of a wider investigation into the sharing of music files over the internet.
