Re: Why bother? There is a fixed cost per room to operate a movie. Whether there is 1 viewer, or 1000, the cost remains constant.
If that person would not have purchased a ticket in the first place, then there really is no loss. The closest I could argue is where a paying customer is displaced by a non-paying customer. This is due to competition for the same space.

| I suppose that the freeloader would argue, in his defence, were he actually charged with "theft of service", that, there being no loss, he took nothing? You said, originally, "It still does not cause the theater to lose money in any fashion." I am merely pointing out that there is a loss of revenue, which is some "fashion" of loss.
