Cheapo Freesat PC Card?

[MarkRSi]

There's currently a sky dish attached to my house which I'm considering taking down, but wondering if I should giving one of these a try first or something similar as I have a tower attached to the TV in my living room.

Doesn't need to be too fancy, don't watch too much in the way of TV and if I do it'll probably be one of the following

• Top Gear (old Clarkson re-runs or the new Evans show, assuming it's not ste)
• Star Trek re-runs
• 24 hour news channels
• MotoGP (need BT sport for this though...)
• Errr...
• That's it.

Might just end up taking down the dish and pocketing the money I'd have to pay on TV licensing, but just wondered if a cheap card would be any good, or if I'd really need to spend a few £hundred in which case I probably won't bother.

I'd have recommended TBS as I've used a few of their cards at work. They even have Linux drivers, which is a bonus.

That's odd... didn't someone mention getting an OpenBox V8S or similar on this thread? ...

That's what I'd probably go for - they also mention about getting a "gift"... the internet seems very vague on this, but I'd assume these are 'codes' of sorts which would allow me to decode satellite signals? I'd assume I'd need these for a TBS card as well?
