Starview?

Sassy · 2007-02-18 15:51:09

Apologies if I'm in the wrong forum with this but someone recommended that my parents buy a Starview receiver that gets over 100 channels. At the moment they just have the basic NTL package but I've no idea if this thing is any use, worth buying or even legal! Can anyone advise me before they fork out all that money. Thanks
