    If you are not interested in Sport why not cancel UPC TV and have BB only and get a Humax Foxsat HD PVR or two.

    Or the Panasonic HD Satellite PVR with BD (blu Ray /DVD player) recording of HDD programs to BDR disk?

    Or a Full HD (or WUGXA) Projector with Zoom less to do 36" for 4:3 content and up to 72" for Cinematic Widescreen BD & HD

    I would suggest a 1.2M dish which will allow you to receive Badr4 26E. It has a number of Arabic stations which show lots of films and series FTA in English e.g. MBC4, Dubai One, MBC Action, MBC Max etc...
