Thing is Derek you can never say never. Look at how long its took VM to get to a point where they are ready to roll it out. Look at how much time the boxes have been available? pretty much all the time since the old analogue boxes were actually chipped

Ive seen advanced systems where a certain box is hooked up and connected remotely to a system where a pier who has a powered dish and actually subscribes to loads of different satellite services and then somehow allows the 3rd party boxes to access the content ( admittedly the guy got caught)

Even if it takes 2 or 3 more years to crack it how many more years will it take before VM can beat them again?
