[QUOTE="2old4this, post: 1185, member: 174998"] Well for a start, the "dream package" Conax card you mention is certainly not legal. It is a pirate card. It is no more legal than all the Irdeto & Seca/Mediaguard cards one can purchase/program (goldwafers, etc - read elsewhere on this board). If you are to "keep it legal" and you are based in Germany, then then you are pretty limited re. premium Enlish-language US channels. There are obviously many free-to-air channels such as NBC, CNN, C-Span, Fox-sports, etc, if you wish to purchase a steerable satellite system and hunt them out. There are also from time to time Hispanic channels which appear unencrypted (currently there's a whole package FTA on the satellite at 43West). But for "mainstream" or premium channels, you are restricted to whatever the satellite providers in your country of residence include in their particular subscription packages. In Germany, Premiere-World is the biggest. They do offer some films under there Cinedom PPV channels whcih are broadcast in the original language, but almost all of the rest - including all of the free-to-air German stuff - is dubbed into German. PremiereWorld also includes BBC-Prime, the British service aimed at foreign countries (but all original BBC 1&2 programs, some current, in English). You will need to consult a source like http://www.satcodx.com where it is possible to sort channels on language. See what there is. But prepare to be disappointed. Unless you're willing to relax on the "legal" aspect... 2old [/QUOTE]
