Will a Dream Box 500S box be sufficient, if I just want to receive all Sky UK channels with a Sky dish, or should I go for another box?

How do u think you are going to get all the sky channels? without a sub?

I'm going to cardshare or pay to get on a server.

... So is a DM 500S ok to start me off?

You are a fool if you pay for a card server.

That was just an example. I will cardshare.

Think again - Sky are introducing new anti card sharing measures in the near future which will almost certainly stop site - site sharing..

What do you intend to cardshare with out of interest?

How do you guys get all the sky channels then (other than pay sub obv.), if you don't card share?

I'm new to all this, so please explain.

Thanks
