    Question Sky / Showtime sports rip off

    Hi all, just visited Tenerife and found a bar with a Masterbox AAA7 (rebadged Dreambox 500c) A guy is selling these with hacked Sky and Showtimesports pack. The box has to be connected to internet for auto update I presume??? if you do not pay him 150 euros a year he cuts you off. Is this being done via remote access?? Is their a way round this?? The box runs an enigma image and does not work if disconnected from internet. I know my way round cable but am moving to non cabled island so need help regarding Sat.

    If I copy the image from the box this guy sold my friend will it work?? When the guy says he will turn off the box in 12 months unless you pay him, is it a matter of copying my friends box again. ?

    Can this guy see how many box's are conected?

    this is slipping into the realms of "how do i cardshare"?
    this is not up for discussion on DK as Sadiq has said

    No.. you wont have the same ip or dyndns address as your friend.. also it wont be a 500C as this is for cable and Sky / Showtime are satellite broadcasters.. It will be a 500S

    The guy can see every client he has..

    It wont work if you copy the image and use it on your box..

    Dont use a payserver there are plenty of other options.. just google it as its a no no here mate

    Also 150 Euros a year is hardly a rip.. it would cost you 7 times that if you bought your own sub

    Terriers, its not that all our rules are based on the law, maybe devilfish doesnt want us talking about cardsharing here.. Remember the rules have a purpose behind it and df knows that purpose..

    the image is just like the operating system of the receiver. Like windows is on a pc.

    It would be good if we could talk about card sharing on here as it is a great forum but there are plenty more forums about dedicated to card sharing. just google.

    its just another option mate,,,and one where we the enthusiasts are one step ahead for quite some time to come...
    but dont despair digi tv on emu is as good as any package,and the diablo is now going down a new road with a new package and probably more to follow, so i think the futures ok...too many manufacturers etc are making money and they arent just gonna let it die...
