It really unknown FTA's keep saying that they are not going to give up, but the new update result harder than they expected. Even to the complicity of DTV.
Well when there is a lot of money involve there is hope, I don't think that with so much money invested in HD FTA new receivers they are going to give up that easy.
It's TRUE that there is so much $$$ money involved/invested to HD FTAs and FTA PVRs that were supposed to be marketed this month. But, DN is also is protecting their large investment that they are loosing... Let's wait and see... At the moment there is no definite answer.
Yes I believe there is too much money involved here also. This is not like plastic, receiver companies make lots of money from repeat buyers. People can buy 3 or 4 receivers, upgrading to next best model. It all adds up to megabucks. Too much at stake.
There is a old saying and goe's like this: All good things must come to a end! People have hope and are still waitind for return to dtv.(dave)PEOPLE WAKE UP!!!!!!!
Put it this way... If something has been encrypted, it can always be decrypted... There is always a way.... It just takes time... It'd be faster if an FTA coder was working for BEV or CHARLIE, and leaking the info back to all the other FTA coders.
Keep the faith everybody...
It's only a matter of time...
Remember the only fool proof way to keep television is by purchasing a SUB.
Pirate Pete makes a good damn point...DN and Bev can get their hands on the fixes just as soon as we can....what makes us think that the new ECMs wont be around soon after.....remember the latest fix didn't last all that long before this latest ECM hit....I hate to say it, I think the Hackers have been hacked, BIG TIME.
Lets take the nagra 2 hack for example. When Nagra 2 came into effect, there were about no channels for what.. 3 months, 4 months? Everybody except Nagra 2 to be very secure and no one expected it to be hacked. But it happened. The hacks were out in August and September and everyone was back and running.
So as of right now, there are all kinds of rumours. People saying there will be no fix, people saying that the fix will be out soon, etc. Lets just wait and see what the time will tell. Remember FTA can never be 100% up.

What he meant was that Nagra 2 first came into effect in Europe so most of the Europe FTA was black for a few years. Then last year, someone hacked N2 in Spain and the hack came from Europe to North America and DN and BEV were all open.
