[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1146360, member: 82144"] Hello again In short: because MP doesn't support DRM, and so the card won't allow MP to receive premium content. WMC is basically the only PC software that [I]did[/I] support premium channels. Other software either can't afford to get certified due to the cost (tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars), or can't get certified in the first place due to the fact that they're open source (people could just change the code to circumvent the DRM restrictions => no certification). In MP's case: we survive on donations. There's no way we can afford certification... and we're open source as well, which means we basically have no hope of ever getting certified even if we had the money. Regards, mm [/QUOTE]
