Question

thanks keith, I suspected as much, all i need now is to get the info to do it.

Answer 1

Smart cards for watching encrypted or pay-per-view channels.

These are cards you can program yourself - if you have the equipment - so that a subscription can be bypassed.

I.E. watch all satellite channels free on a Sky Box without paying the Sky Monthly Subscription.
