About the only channel I want from Sky is Prime. I'm holding off
constructing my htpc until TV3 is FTA over DVB-S, so I can populate the
htpc with DVB-S cards and one analog card for the Skybox, set permanently
to Prime or something.
They're going to be pushing a rock uphill if they think that people are
going to replace their huge-screen TV's just because Sky says they should.
The new set top boxes should have composite, S-vid out on the back, right?
Anyone know if there is a DeCSS-alike for this HDTV encryption thing?
