Nfusion Nova and Sonicview are back on.

Well, It’s not over. Not yet, anyway. As you can see from the two comments we got on the previous  post,  Nfusion Nova and SonicView FTA receivers have managed to release new working files.
More files will show up for the other manufacturers and models very soon I think, as that’s how it always work.
This time the wining of the race goes to Nfusion Nova and other models using the IKS internet mode. Second price goes to SonicView.
Question is:
Is it a pach or is it a fix?
If this is just a pach then they will be down on Wednesday or Thursday. If not, then they should be working next weekend as well.
Or not.
So, as I always say, if you really want your TV channels to be there for you when you want them, then go and subscribe and pay for them. If not, and you want to play the game, then don’t complain and learn to live with it.

Is this begining of the end of Free to Air?

It looks like the FTA receivers got seriously hurt.
Dish Network and Bell together have introduced new type of encoding of many desirable channels, making them unavailable to the hacked receivers and at the same time, making the hacked systems look very undesirable.
On Bev, I don’t see too many people desperately wanting to brake the codes to watch CBC. CTV, Global or Aboriginal Network and like wise on Dish Network I don’t think there is too much demand to hack their US locals like ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox (not to mention numerous shopping and religion channels)
So,  what’s gone? No more PPV , Premium Movies, Professional Sports like Hockey and Football, no Porn.
Even before, I heard “there is nothing to watch” so, what’s now?
Stay tuned, I will keep you up to date with the changes. All though don’t hold your breath, it may take a while before coders/hackers will find reliable fix.
