Q: Best satellite TV options?

Does anybody here have something where they can get tons of International sports stations, English movies, and so on?

 

I know you can download stuff but looking for something for TV where I can just switch on and watch hundreds of English channels.

 

Any advice?

Thanks

Good luck man, hope you find something. If you do, please share.

 

I think you might be wanting to look into VPN and streaming / downloading options though. China seems to be in the process of closing the doors to the outside world again as far as media goes.

BHGAL, exactly! Anyone with half a brain knows that the govt is actively trying to identify ways foreign TV shows are being broadcast in and shut them down.

I use an android tv box which provides literally hundreds of foreign and local tv channels with NO  monthly fees and is ready to use straight out of the box and no installation headaches; check out Taobao.

Most of the main news, sports and movie channels are available on these boxes and you just need at least a 10 Mbs internet connection

gunnerdj:

Hmmm, this sounds promising indeed.

Now you just informed the govt of a loophole in their wall of censorship, in a few months when your services magically stop working, look in the mirror.
