LOL, if the encrytion didn't change then whats the point of changing out the smartcards?
Every NDS installation is different - no two sites ever use exactly the same encryption method, thats why smartcards used in America are useless in the UK for example.
When NDS decided to change the encryption new software was put into the STB's, ntl at the time also had to put new software onto all of their digital recievers to cope with the Sky encryption system change. NDS certainly changed the Sky encryption system, and no doubt will do sso again at some point in the future.
Also you said earlier NDS only supply encryption to News Corp companies, again thats wrong have a look here at their customers -
