Default Starview over others

Hello there
Not long joined the forum and would like some answers and opinions please!

Can someone please tell me why to purchase a Starview box over say a Eurovox max 2008 or a chipped NTL box.

THey all do the same things right? so whats the difference?

Can someone help please?!

Yeah thanks
yeah i know how to tell if its a cloned box, all details on this site, so youre saying that ill get more channels through the NTL box?

i thought i can only get the channels that my cable provider has?

so theres no difference is there?

actually u get more chanells with a starview or euromax than a cable provided box, also if things go pear shaped u can input keys manually as well.

What extra channels would i get with a eurovox V max 2008?
I thought i could only get the channels that VM supplied?

Also which one would you recommend out of the boxes?

This is just my opinion but i think you should go down the eurovox route. Very easy to use, easy to update/fix and if you run into problems there's plenty of help to be found. I think you should pick up around 250 channels with ev on vm.

m8 a chipped box is miles better than a eurovox ect justs needs a lot more attention if for example the dates run out on the card you would have to try and redo the card or rely on who ever you got it from
