£9.99 per month, I think. Plus a £10 sign up fee, which is waived if you
sign up on line. Not sure if you can just phone Sky or if you have to go
through Setanta.

You cannot just phone Sky! Setanta is a separate subscription (and they
collect it themselves)

Setanta offer their channels direct to viewers (as SKY want to do on cable).
If you can do without the SKY EPG then an independent Sat box with a CAM
slot should suffice. Setanta pay for their programs to appear in the SKY
EPG, just like BBC/ITV etc.

Err - no it won't! Setanta also pay Sky for Videoguard encryption of their
channels so a Sky smartcard (even a Freesat one?) in a Sky Digibox is
required.

So yet another subscription service thinks the standard Cam approach is not
secure. So much for all those "get a cam box" officando's who condem SKY for
having their own security. Even Satanta doesn't trust CAM methods. I'm not
suprised. A 5 min search is sure to find lots of sites offering pirate
cards.

Well it's more than 5 minutes since you posted now, so come on then,
post your URLs of the sites offering pirate cards for Setanta so that
action can be taken.

I think he meant it was easy to find pirate cards for channels that do not
use videoguard.

Err - yes it will! just get yourself a freesat or old sky card and
put it in a dragon cam. As long as it sees a skybox once a month
you'll be ok.

If Satana are using SKY's encryption you won't find a separate Satana CAM
card!
