Satellite on your PC?

[Ei]

Hi,
My hubby has found a website offering a download for 1000 channels on our pc for $67. As we live in France we can't have sky package any more, so he's very excited by this.
Anyone had experience of this? Is it a con?
Any comments appreciated.
Thanks
Eileen

I think they will probably ask you to enter your credit card details.

After that I think you may see all sorts of unexplained things appear on your credit card bill.

Thanks for that. Is there anyway I can check them out? Here's the link if your'e interested?

Interestingly not one single channel is named, apart from a sports channel I have never heard of.

I really think this is too good to be true. They make no mention of BBC, the American equivalents or even sky channels.

The disclaimers are interesting - no responsibility for accuracy of claims, no responsibility for harm to pc, you will accept pop ups and other advertising....

I think you would get access to channels - but nothing you would want to watch.

Interestingly, I found this on eBay:

Here are the negative feedback:

You decide - but �4 is less to lose than $60+

Hey Ethel,
Well done! You should work for the FBI, tracking it down like that.
Just reading feedback, appears very good. Thank you very much for your time.
