hit by n3, any alternative to dbox?

[mark8393]

iv'e still got a sly dish from when i had sly a couple of years ago still works i just set it up in back room for the freeview channels.
can i use that dish with any of these systems.

sorry about the caps janobi i forgot i had it on.
wasn't shouting mate.
cheers nedster

probably still pointing at 28.2, so thats fine. the only other thing you need to do is connect ethernet lead from box to router, or if this is not viable use homeplugs.

very upset my box died.
missing all channels now sniff sniff

Dry your eyes member, and pay for a sub, and it will never happen again!

We all had a good run at it....some longer than others. At the end of the day all good things must come to an end...no point in greetin' about it. Look at it this way...at least we all have lovely doorstops to keep our doors open now for the vermin engineers to install subbed boxes

Someone mentioned how will we see football games.......well...you can either p2p them(crappy picture and stuttery when working..if working at all) or do what ill be doing.........Sky/Xbox live or go to the pub and get wrecked hahahha

Soon all the independent channel providers will work out screw Sky and Virgin and do subscribe direct on internet provider like Insurance company's are screwing the insurance brokers now. Maybe best to bring them subscription prices down now! Ok Sky and Virgin are channel providers also.
Just off to Google internet TV service subscriptions http://www.seesaw.com/ . The DM500 will receive streamed network media so has life after cable N3 sort of but via PC http://wiki.videolan.org/How_to_DBox . But with Virgin putting a lot more HD channels on recently its tempting to pay for HD service but will have to get a good deal or its freeSatHD and internet streams with the odd blue ray and cinema. Would still be cheaper than a monthly subscription but Sky and Virgin do have well sorted one stop solution but at a price. Some think its worth it some dont. For what I watch (mostly freeview) its not worth it really at the price right now.

What are you saying. When you say free channels do you mean freeview or all subscription channels free ie. slysports and so. Some one told me today to get a starview as they will still work on N3, i told them to keep smug about it and go make a fortune. I think he'll still be scrounging ale next time i see him.
