:confused

Firstly, I must mention I know nothing about this subject and I require a little help to get started.
I live in a remote area just outside town (Southern Sweden), and do not have the possibility to get broadband through a line connection. Someone told me I can get broadband through my sat dish. I have been viewing the Broadsat website for info, but remain confused about hardware I need. Some say I need a modem, some say I only need a card...mmm!?
Secondly I am fond of a certain particular type of music and I wanted to use Kazaa to download (This is the only reason why I require broadband...but please note I only wish to download certain tracks I have problems getting hold of...I am not one of those who will download a hundred albums per day!). For this, do I need a 1 way or 2 way directional service, and will Broadsat be good enough or can you recommend another provider?
Again, my brain cant get going on this subject, please help!

All you need with most of the satellite ISPs is a Skystar 2 card and a standard ISP account for the outgoing connection. Not sure how well it works with Kazaa though.
