[QUOTE="Mickha, post: 1105645, member: 187442"] I can't understand your argument, regarding it being a political decision, to have English, FTA, satellite channels broadcasting using a spot beam. For many years the U.S. film industry, have actively fought, to stop transmission, of their films, from being available to other countries, via satellite, so that they can sell their films, television series, to each country individually, to make more money, and now that the technology is available, to use spot beams, they are using it. Personally I don't watch British television, so wouldn't be upset if all the channels were encrypted, but even if they were English channels should not be available overseas. Of course many people, and companies, have gotten round this problem by registering cards in the host country, and shipping them pre-activated elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
