Dreambox-any good?

I heard a few friends talking about the satellite TV service Dreambox and I was wondering if anybody has any experience with it and how easy is it to use because I currently have Sky+ at the moment and its pricey

Some of them still work but they are illegal content. Sky movies and sports for no extra cost.

The brother in law had one for the last 3 years but this summer it will no longer work. The signal remains encrypted.

You may end up with an old one. But you could also get one that works for a few months and then gets blocked. Always a risk

Reports on the net that $ky are busting a gut trying to devise a way of stopping the illegal side of Dreamboxes.

I think its days are numbered tbh.
