    Whats the legality of using one as a consumer in Ireland? Im not considering to buy one even though i'm paying €60+ a month for sky, i just don't think it's fair for people who just buy a box set for a one off price rather than people who fairly earn and spend their money. Would appreciate all posts!!

    so you mean boxes that stream shows over the internet for free

    or a free to air satellite that picks up free stations? ie the stuff you'd be left with if you took your sky card out

    They will exist until the service offered by paid providers is equivalent quality. Netflix still doesn't have a lot of shows that the TV box sets have. Don't have one myself but considering getting one.

    The Father Ted box set is my personal favourite.


















    Careful now















    Down with that sort of thing.

    I'm guilty of it myself....but it is probably killing the film industry

    I watch nothing but boxsets, only for them I'd never have seen any series of anything since MacGyver.

    I watch them legally though.
