I'd rather watch something decent on a black and white, mono, 405 line TV than soap operas in ultra high definition holographic interractive 17 channel audio.

I believe BT were / are testing so are relaying signals back to earth in the clear. Their customer may or may not be SKY, but it does not restirct use to ASTRA satelites.
It's in a similar vein as Premiership football being broadcast live and free int the clear to several european countries. If you can pick up the signal from the satleite then good for you althought ehcarrier may get their wrists slapped.

I'm a bit confused. Are you saying that BT or Sky are supplying unencrypted output, and what do you use to watch them? (i.e. is Sky selling HDTV receivers yet?)

If you know the right channel and satellite you can get a nose eye view from cruise missiles and predators and all sorts of equally boring stuff too.

Dammit...Im gonna have to google this tonight!
BTW, when you say nekid...do you mean actually nekid and you see some heaven or not actually nekid and you see nothing but bare back?
If nekid, is it on a parr with the sonic shower scenes from Enterprise with that vulcan with the chest puppies that make Newton and Einstein look like numpties that know nothing about gravety?
