dsp - some info: Freeview is a free to air digital UK service used by most viewers. Other platforms are Sky satellite (pay) and Freesat (free)

we also have Virgin (pay - optical cable) and a few hybrid products combining broadband and any of the above. Quite a few people use broadband only (real-time and 'catch-up'), the favorite being BBC iPlayer.

I guess UK encryption is weaker than US if it is easily circumvented by Super. Cyberlink Media Espresso also 'doesn't see' UK encryption. There are others. The OP is in the UK so that's why I gave UK info.
Judging by the amount of US TV shows available via torrent and cyberlockers, it seems US encryption can also be bypassed, although I hear Warner Bros are currently taking legal action against a company selling HDCP crack devices

at least in the US you don't have a TV license (£145), detection vans and fines or jail for transgressors !
