This exaggerated and overpriced software is both useless and a con trick. The vast majority of the so-called ‘channels’ advertised either don’t exist or do not work. While I never believed more than a fraction of the hype I thought it might be worth the experiment, solely because my house is surrounded by trees and I can’t set up my own satellite dish. My broadband and PC, however, are fully up to date with the necessary speed and player software so please do not try to dodge the argument with specious technical rubbish.

I was charged on my credit card more in sterling than the advertised dollar price. Further this criminal supplier added VAT which he has no intention of paying. I doubt that he actually exists as a company or some other aggrieved customer would no doubt have tracked him down and got the courts to put him out of business.
