you sound like you've got your knickers in a twist
so you reckon that every household in the world or even just the uk that has ever watched any pirate streams is going to get a court summons for doing so?
yeah right



more like the companies that stream the content will be targeted first and that their streaming is closed down or else they will face severe action

I had sky for 25 years, paying full whack. I got fed up of terrible and arrogant customer service. I switched to BT and pay a fair amount for a box which, if i'm honest, isn't as good as skys. however the much cheaper coast and better customer service equals things out.
however we only get sky sports 1 and 2, so with this likely to be football i'm not sure what we can do

rang BT and they are waiting for sky to announce how its exactly going to work. they are hopeful of gaining more sky sports channels, rather than just 1 & 2 that they have now

If only RL had the same problem, but sometimes the only way to watch a live premier league game is to find a streaming site. Despite the option being available in a vast number of countries in the world to pay to watch said game (possibly free in some countries), it's just not possible to do the same in the UK. Is it a surprise that folk in the UK turn to the likes of Kodi when they don't have any other option?

Ever been abroad in Europe? Strange how the bars all have every premier league game on, plus all the top foreign matches!

I started reading it, but unless you're an Oxford/Cambridge qualified lawyer, I doubt you could make full sense of it. The jist seems to be that it opens up the possibility that streaming (sic) "illegal" content could be an offence, but the main point is around the provision of copyrighted material on the internet.

I've not seen a single Kodi 'live' stream that is anything other than completely appalling.

Knackers to sky, other methods are available.

If you're a frivolous goodie goodie with a conscience and worry about premier league footballers trousering a million a month going hungry then crack on having your pants pulled down.

Kodi, magbox, Zgemma box. Shit loads of options out there.

Proud to be a parasite and I'm not even Scouse.

All these so called Kodi box's are NOT kodi box's but are Android box's with a program called kodi that works on them, So should we ban all Android working devices then, which are capable of helping to stream live sports and films.

Slugger calling people Parasites is a bit ott when there's people Bombing Manchester Arena/Running over people on London bridge & Paris bombings & etc NOW they F###ing Parasites killing innocent Kids.

Back to op I hope sky do have a dedicated Rugby league channel you can just pay for instead of all the Nancyball prima donna's, Then I will sign back up no problem.


Up The Trin

I am someone who got fed-up with been ripped off by sky, so went out and bought an "android" box that allowed me to watch sky, BT, and premier sports channels plus many more
After about 12 months, channels started to disappear, until most of what I wanted to watch had gone. The supplier told me sky had encrypted many channels because of illigal receivers and unfortunately the service had come to an end.
I reluctantly had to go back to sky for my sport fix, who incidentally gave me a very good deal as a returning customer.
The sky operator I delt with asked if I had been using another supplier for my service and went on say that sky are actively closing down all illigal streaming of their services or re-ecrypting the signal to confuse pirate transmitters.
She also said that within 12 months prosecutions against the bigger organisations will begin.

It would seem sky are fighting back,so before the new channels are up and running, I think many of these kodi type boxes won't be working anyway.

Any attempt to dishonestly receive pay t.v. programming is Illegal. There is no grey area it is expressly forbidden whichever system you abuse.

It seems most people are now switching from the card sharing to the IPTV system. People always find a way around the blocking/encryption. If Sky charged a reasonable price i would imagine most people would be happy to pay it.
