sky tv on pc ?

[tigga]

i have seen lots of offers on ebay and websites that say they can tell you how to get sky tv (all channels) on your pc for �5 or �10, no more fees nothing else to buy etc, is this actually possible or is it a con ?

thanks in advance

It's a con.  Basically some of them just send you a bit of paper, or email you a list of links, where you can watch free internet tv channels; more often than not it will be just crap news channels and the like.  Don't waste your money!

After seeing screenshots of 'Sky on your PC' (whateva)

i spent �5 on this good for nothing low quality .txt document of links.

Click that to check it out. and they needed RealPlayer anyway and even the News channels were recorded not live. Grr. 400 out of 500 didnt work anyway.

Aquariel is right, though there are a couple of good movie channels, about 10 news channels, 2 good sports channels. To be fair the quality is quite good ( suprisingly really ). There are 10 + drama channels but they are a mixture of Korean, Chinese, Arabic etc. Not in English.

I do beleive this is the way to go though, on demand internet TV. I think I will start a Web site with links and software to the sites, Anyone interested ?
