The title kind of says it all really, but I just wanted to know whether downloading TV is against the law or not. The reason I ask this question is because I download a lot of TV, most recently Game of Thrones. I cannot wait for the second series but that will come out whilst I am at University and have no access to Sky TV (UK broadcasting agency that show GoT) therefore I have no way to watch it other than downloading a torrent and universities have rather strict policies on illegal dowloading (as they should).
I know that it is Illegal to download Games and Movies via torrent, and just wondered whether TV fell in the same category.
