Freeview HD and Sky Sports/ESPN question
Hi all,

Question regarding Freeview boxes. I'm on Sky, and not changing my boxes, but my parents, who've always been on cable, have just been told that their cable service is to be discontinued.

Apart from 'normal' terrestrial TV, they only watch Sky Sports/ESPN.

So, was looking at Freeview, with a TopupTV subscription. But the topup TV site is not very clear.

What I'm wondering is, if I buy my parents this (giving them PVR functions too):

Can I then get Sky sports and ESPN for them via TopupTV? Do I need to add anything (CAM etc.)?

I'm normally pretty switched on with technology, but find this a bit confusing!

Some Top-Up channels are time restricted.
Check carefully first.
I've got an earlier Humax 2 channel PVR - Works fine.
