We've all seen or heard about them some of us may own them or have certainly been offered them.
It looks like some retailers are seeing if they can get away with selling them already cracked.
I suspect they will stamp on them whilst the ability to buy one and have it 'upgraded' will mostly remain untouched. Much like illegal drugs and the legal highs recently banned.

Personally I suspect this may be a reason that the football bubble could be due to burst when the next lot of contracts are up for bidding. Very few passengers I talk to about the subject, which is a lot in this football mad city, pay Sky or BT for their sports service and are only too ready to offer their suggestion of the best streaming sites.
Interesting that 'more on this story' at the bottom of the page links to 
'Premier League shuts down 30,000 illegal streams.'
Blocking one hole in a colander is never going to have much effect or even blocking 30,000 in one with several million holes.

I'm old enough to remember the music industry going ape sh*t when Amstrad released the dual cassette deck.
