    Thanks, but they don't really specialise, and they don't have any TV torrents.

    Linking to torrents to television shows (or any other copyrighted material not specifically marked for free distribution by the owner for that matter) is a fast way to get banned.

    you would be banned from this website ie boards.ie for posting links to illegal material. May google be your guiding light

    So are you saying that I can get a dish privately(without sky or those) and then my reception would be better?

    Under 300 Euro once off cost. Cheaper with DIY.
    All the BBC & ITV (abouot 15 distinct channels) Film4, and 70 radio stations. About 45 to 50 watchable free TV channels.

    Add a motor (100 Euro) and get DWTv, BBC World TV, and 3000 other mostly non-english channels. Frequent MSNBC feeds on 15W, CNBC, Bloomberg all free (pay on Sky). Eurosport in German. MTV with German presenters. About 10 really worth while channels with english ( And one with English subtitles).

    BBC /ITV are far better quality on Satellite than Digital Cable.

    No direct US to Home stations at all.

    List of free channels without a Motor or other multiple sat methods:

    With a 90cm to 110cm dish you can get most of these satellites:
