I use Netflix for which you also need internet. But Cignal just uses sat TV when we bought the service we got the dish I think it cost about 1400 p. Then the monthly charge is variable any thing from 100 to 1000 mth depending on what channels you want. Great thing is if you stop for 3 or 4 months for vacation ect. You just pay your normal monthly when you get back.

No Cignal is available via PLDT Fibre. That's how I watch. No dish required.

Then I guess your options are streaming or satellite dish Mike.

Greetings!

Just found this site...Firstonetv. It has TV channels from all over the world including the UK which has 92 channels. Also Russia (World Cup?). My internet is poor until later tonight so I cannot stream and try it out. Maybe others can and provide comments.

Regards

You have to install a flash player

Google has its own built in flash player and is not recognised by this site.

Have just watched most of the Russia v Egypt game from the BBC. Using the BBC iPlayer there was regular buffering. With Firstonetv, medium quality, no buffering. A quite acceptable big screen picture.

Good find, P11!
