Default Quick question: Cable receiver v VM box

Hi Guys,

Just a very quick question for which your advise will be appreciated.

Is it true that if a Cable box was used (ie DBox) to receive VM channels, the box would receive more channels than the standard cable box VM install in the house??

A work collegue claims he now gets a lot more channels on DBox on VM cable than he did when usinng a 'modified' card on VM box.
I would have thought both the boxes would pick up the same channels streamed down the line?
Please advise.
Thanks.
