    I don't know? I posted something similar on another MSE forum and got a similar reply to this. I'll find the link for you.

    You haven't done anything illegal. I have hotbird and can watch quite a lot of sport on that - I think you may also be able to get Eurosport on Freeview.
    No need to go without sport:beer:

    PS I am going to try your link though:D

    It's probably illegal for them to transmit (depends on which country they're in) but it isn't illegal for you to receive.

    No lenny, Hotbird is another satellite - like Astra, which we got in order to receive the Italian TV - it has all the mainstream Italian channels, plus about 50 'private' Italian channels, most of which are not worth watching (continuous adverts for premium rate !!!!!! lines). Some of the channels are encrypted and, unfortunately, even RAI go encrypted when they are showing Formula 1, or Seria A football, but there are about 200 other channels - German, Arabic, French etc. so there is usually some sport to watch - again you need to turn the volume down if you don't understand Arabic:rolleyes:
    You can, I understand, get a double LNB, which allows you to receive Astra Freeview as well, but that's all a bit technical for me.
