Why not get an Amazon fire stick and load Kodi onto it? Sky and Virgin Media will loose a fuck tonne of money because there's programmes on there loads of people watch. There's a few I watch like Gold Rush, Deadliest Catch and a few more that escape me. I'll be looking at a fire stick from Amazon and load Kodi onto it.

Its not illegal either, as long as you set it up, it is illegal however for a company to sell a fully work one

When we moved i wanted the 40mb/s interweb (from the 8mb/s we had) and took out a £45/month contract with SKY

We moved in and it had gone up to £47.50 before even installed

now its £54/month

Really miss the old Virgin cable we had with dodgy decoder boxes....

They're still on. Sounds like Murdoch has got a healthy interest in both companies?
