    if your not bothered about the picture quality then a simple Dreambox 500s will do, maybe the cheapest box as well.

    the more your willing to pay , then you will get better quality ( you get what you pay for basicaly )

      You want to purchase a Sat box that has plenty of support.

              when you come from an IPbox 9000HD to a dm500 you will see a massive difference m8

                  Yes comparing HD to a normal box i completly differnt ..

                  you don't notice it if your always using a 500 but the second you swich and look back you notice it big style!

                    an HD box will upscale its quality to near HD quality on SD channels , thats why it looks much better ( similar to HD )
