    Getting a new box. Not too bothered how long it lasts with the upcoming Virgin nagra 3 shenanigans.

    So do I get the HD Combo or 6?

    I'd quite like to see what the HD is like, but is SV6 standard definition better to get?

    The cable side of the combo wont work in ire or will soon die off in the UK, the SV6 is working well in Ireland, but doesnt work in the UK, why buy a combo when half of it is or will become useless..........

    I understand that. I thought SV6 allows you to stream the channels in (paying a subscription) from certain sites or something.

    only works in in ire mate, not the UK as of yet, the cable side of the combo box will become redudant very soon in the UK, so its a waste of money for ya mate, If you want sat, look at the Shy chans on Dreambox thread, but regarding the other two, save yer money
