    No-one knows when it will go down or if it will ever go down for good. It a chance you take when you buy your box.

    box will work for a good while yet.

    Virmin will change encryption one day, but in my opinion, not for some time.

    It takes time, money and man hours to do so, and in this time of credit crunch, they aint going to do it anytime soon.

    Just my opinion mind.

    They are using tactics like warning channel, strongarm tactics on ebay, posting friend of a friend works for virmin and guess what I heard, etc, etc.

    I think we are good for a while yet.

    And when all said and done, as I have said before, it is theft. They have every right to stop what you may be doing.
