    Its irrelevent.

    If you actually want a decent channel selection free now, get satellite. In all of EU you may only watch encrypted TV using the appropriate viewing card. The Encrypted content on Irish DTT is a closed Trial.

    Yeah, there's every chance he just wants to know for the sake of it.

    I mean, we can all admit to building up reserves of random tech information just to wow our friends with over a nice dinner.

    "Did you know that the encryption used for the Irish DTT trial etc. etc. etc. "

    Cue gasps of amazement.

    Nothing really wrong with wanting to know some of the basic technical details. Just wanting to know what encryption system being used is hardly a hanging offence; that information on its own isn't going to be worth much trying to crack the encryption.
