Sigh. You would be amazed how often this question comes up - and has been answered on the forum.

No there isnt.

You want sky via satellite then you pay for it

You dont want to pay = you do without.



Your choice


Those nice people at Sky will take anything from 16quid/month up to 40 or more for the pleasure of watching their channels.

If you want HD its another tenner, and for each extra room thats an extra tenner per room should you want multiroom

Because its one of the best receivers available to the enthusiast?

However - even a dreambox wont magically open maost pay tv services without access to a subscription.

Sigh. You know something?? I sometimes wonder why I bother.

Hadnt you noticed I worded my answers very carefully??


With no disrespect to gg06, anyone who has a very basic level of knowledge does not need to know about patched receivers and foreign tv services. And he certainly doesnt need to get into the intricate details of the more complex features associated with dreamboxes.

That would come later if the interest deepens.

For a junior member you seem to think that you know better than one of the best respected EXPERTS on not only this forum but several others, what makes you such an expert. Little boys like you should listen and not shout.
