Free Satellite TV on PC? Is this legit?

[Whizbang]

Free TV  There is a $67.00 program to buy first though.

Oh, this is just great. Now Ace is going to try this service using his dial-up modem. The disastrous result will be every TV satellite around suddenly coming to a grinding halt and falling from orbit.

Aside from that, this seems wrong from every angle. It looks like another qet rich quick scheme in which the sucker consumer makes someone else rich.

Scuzzy; Please stand by.

These sort of things are so common in the UK, particularly on the likes of eBay.  In most cases they are a scam pure and simple and either:
a) give you a listing of FREE internet streams
b) give you a cracked version of a legitimate program

I'm not saying that this is either of the above, but it just doesn't look right - the web site has the appearance of a get rich quick type scheme which will probably disappear in a few weeks once they've scammed enough people.

Indeed.

That $67 will pay for a link to software (it's essentially reselling an otherwise freely available product) and/or websites linking to free tv and otherwise, illegal streams. 

Total nonsense.

I wasn't going to take the bait, but I was curious as to the legality of it.

The thing that turned me off was that the program was not a trial of "free for 30 days".  Most legitimate programs, all of Microsoft offerings excluded, have free period of evaluation.  I must also agree that the very decor of the website suggests that they are selling snake oil.
