Personal favourite is the Eurovox, but everybody has their own opinion,

Depends on what you need the box to do!

Whatever you say, say nothing when you talk about you know what for if you know who might hear you, you know what youll get. Youll be sent off to you know where for you would not know how long. Maybe I could search through the threads so you dont have to ??

all depends what you want to do

for basic viewing then Kryptview is the best

for more advance stuff like recording to a hard drive or streaming video files from a PC go for a dreambox

I prefer dBox/Dreambox can I can set up a fully blown media centre with that.

as a Kryptview is not a legit box as such, then once the CC company change the encryption then yes a new firmware will need to be uploaded to the box. If you want none of this hassle, then why not subscribe to VM and get the official box and no need to do any ugraded.

VM virgin media ( I think), what he is saying if you are not prepared to learn a bit about updating the box you should maybe just pay the cable companies, and get a legit box off them.
