Which is fine if you have that option, but not everyone does. Unless planning laws have changed recently, and I`m not aware that they have, technically there can only be one satellite dish per block of building if it is a block of flats. If someone else in the block has a Sky dish up and you then add a second one, technically speaking the council can order you to take it down. In practice this does not seem to happen, but would you be happy after paying out for a Sky+ box to be told that you have to take your dish down.
Of course, it is time that this planning rule was changed given the ubiquity of digital broadcast services these days, but that's a topic for another thread.
