He's never mentioned any problems with anything like that.
When he first had his Pay TV cut off, I do remember him saying that iPlayer wouldn't work and that some messages were appearing on the screen. IIRC he had to press back up or something to get rid of it. I
think that he said that he had to clear it everytime he changed channels, which isn't too bad as he only watches BBC1 & BBC News- I don't think that the radio stations had this, so his Radio 4 would be OK.
I guess it's the VM box that's causing this as it's expecting a valid viewing card to give it the ability to descramble the encrypted channels, I wouldn't have thought that non VM equipment would do this because, AFAIK, they can no longer decode the scrambled pay channels.
Yes, it was radio 3 in HD:
