It's not really chipping anything, it is just installing a bit of software
Sound. I'll stick you down as first reserve.

If I was going to get sent down I'd want it to be for something more extravagant than installing dodgy software

tried a few android boxes and theyre all generally shit imo
ive moved over to an openbox with 24 months subscription, i now have full sky channels and pay per view , no steaming, i still use alappy for that, and dl films via torrent sites
you cant beat the quality of a openbox , the occasional freeze for a few seconds, but none of the endless searching for a stream when the football goes off (on android box/stick)

yes mate, and ethernet as youre bing provided by someones server
ihave 2 boxes, but must admit the menu is terrible, ive just come across a zgemma h.2s which apparently has a full sky menu, and supposedly has kodi built in , ebay has them for around £140 with subscription backup, think i may have to purchase one of these badboys asap

I have one from there but the 3d / 4k one and mainly use it to stream over my network and it works great.
It doesn't come pre loaded with the dodgy stuff though like they do on ebay

Do they just run off the normal sky dish cable?

yes , you only need a sky dish and an internet connection (ethernet)
no sky subscription required
plugs straight into the box

hmm, with the new snoopers charters and the fact a VPN cant be used on a 1st gen firestick I will look into one of these boxes.

Is it basically just the stick with Kodi on?

A number of ISP's have signed up to a deal where they will start to block content that is utilised by Kodi.
Don't know how effective it will be though.

If the vast majority are not using a VPN and then accessing a major event, say a 3pm Premier league kick off, would the providers jobs be made easier?

Just get yourself a build which does it all for you. I understand 'Pulse' could be what you're looking for.

I have a zgemma box and you do get the full sky menu it even says sky on the menu. I have every channel including box office, all I pay is £10 a year subscription (to who I don't know as brother-in-law sorts it)
