I am not asking anyone to recommend anything illegal or point me in the direction of any devices or software. I am just confused on where streaming devices such as dreambox sit within the law.

When I select them, they start the spinning icon as if about to load and then it just stops and channel after channel is like this. I did get some to work, but not many. Any ideas?

All media entries are automatically tested daily and any dead links are hidden. This takes the pressure off of you to keep your links current, and makes for better Navi-X surfing since dead media is filtered out. Is Navi Extreme an addition, to Navi X, the reason I ask is I often get dead links using Navi X Thx

I don't know the ins and outs, but I remember reading on quite a few different occasions, that as long as the user isn't (wilfully) making a copy of the media, then it's not illegal. That's not to say it is legal either. Anyway, probably not the thread for this...

I have had more hassle off paypal. If I can help it, I wouldn't use them ever again (paypal). They freeze money and all sorts of nonsense. I am looking at that ali link though... I don't think I want to leave it up for everyone to try, and if in 3/4 weeks it doesn't arrive... Seems like it may be a bit of a sh*tstorm. I'll remove the link now. I'd say that the seller was supposed to cancel the option of free shipping, and as they are new, they didn't know how, or didn't know that they had to. I'm not too optimistic about it, but I have an order in all the same..
