Well if I wanted to, I could get it, I would get the same deal as my auntie and uncle because they know its reliable (read my above post). But my parents are real law-abiding people, so, I just need to prove to them some how it is legal. If so...

Thats gold, guess the smart people were awake, we told you its illegal. Evidence isnt needed when common sense tells you its illegal.

an aurora setup will set you back about $300, and even then you dont need it, there are literally thousands of tv channels available 100% free to air, no subscription card required, no risk of prosecution for watching them, they are indeed free, you just need a little know how of how to get them, and before you pipe up, it is not illegal to receive or watch them

I guess the best comparison is: It's A: illegal to make drugs, B: It is illegal to buy drugs C: It is still illegal to use the before mentioned drugs even if they were given to you for free.

I understand what you are saying iaculch, And personally I think along the same lines, but hey If you can tune your TV into the foxtel signal then I'd consider it free. But if you have to buy a sat and a fake smartcard and a decoder box then I'd say it's not.

I know its old but its still relevant

Vyma100: Arn't you allowed to posses a small amount of drugs in canberra. Anyway thats a different story

This may be so but he wants "foxtel" , these channels are free for a reason, they really aint worth watching unless you have a particular interest in them. Im not exactly sure what the list of "free" channels are but if its anything like the free channels you can watch on the internet I wouldnt bother.

Foxtel = rip off... if you're gonna get cable then get like SelecTV - for like $400 they come up, set you up and give you a satelite dish to KEEP. Its yours, and so is all your gear. And thats at a bloody good price.. and then all you gotta do is pay $30 a month for the channels (22) and you're set, with no lock-in fees or contracts or any of that jazz.

LOL $30 a month for 22 channels, now thats a rip off, about 19 of those channels aint worth watching. Id proberly only watch 2 of the movie channels & the MTV channel, even then the MTV channel aint that good.

www.selectv.com/

For $80 a month I get every channel on foxtel but movie channels (who needs them I have all the movies before they are on foxtel or dvd) so thats about 70 channels.

30 divided by 22 $1.35 a channel
80 divided by 70 $1.15 a channel

its ILLEGAL !!!

there was a crackdown a couple months ago where the australian federal police had raided houses because ppl were recieving free cable tv...... apparently they had bought some sought of sim card that inserted into the deckbox, enabling you to watch the channels on foxtel


you want proof ? do it and later someone will come knocking on your door
