Sky TV via Internet ?
A friend of mine wanted to know is this Legal? & Does it work?
http://www.m-99.co.uk/Free_SKY_TV/free_sky_tv.html
He wanted to see the Lions Rugby Tour on PC. As he does not have Sky TV or Digital.
Cheers...
I have seen these on EBay too, but cant see how it works. Anyone have this & can comment?

Re: Sky TV via Internet ?
I would hazard a guess that it is not legal as they are rebroadcasting Television over the internet and charging you money for it?

Re: Sky TV via Internet ?
I would guess it broadcast channels that can be broadcast over the internet for free anyway....
for example my girly watches TGN (Thai Global Network) over the net, which is all legit, much cheaper than paying £400 for the satellite to receive it + plus 400 other channels you don't want
