[QUOTE="tourettes, post: 504910, member: 10858"] Especially the DRM lock down that is looming in the future could be a killing strike. It might end the pay channels for open source based HTPCs completely. My cable company has already taken the nice step towards dancing with the movie / content provider companies. In their great wisdom they have decided to start to use CAM pairing with SD channels as well (which is not even required by the content providers, as only the "premium" HD content should be protected). This will render CAM + PC combination useless as no PC is going to be found on the approved settop box list. Sad, but nothing we can do about. Similar lockdown is most likely going to start happening with the DVB-S side as well. [/QUOTE]
