Same problem I think, obviously analogue you subscribed to movies etc, so there must be some form of network provisioning. Now you could try and find one of these 'chipped' boxes from a car boot, but as well as handling stolen goods you would then be recieving services you have not paid for. Two counts m'lud.

'nowt for free on NTL Shimmer (sorry just watched Brassed Off). The basic pack http://www.home.ntl.com/icat/basepack gives more channels than freeview, but costs £9.50 plus phone line rental (Price is exclusive of £9.50 telephone line rental which must be purchased with your TV package ), so thats £19 in total, but you can ditch your BT line to save some £ÃÆ ’‚£Ãà¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚£ and port the number so you don't need to worry about telling your friends you use an NTL phone line.
