Well at least it looks legal,,wondering if the advertised site ( from USA ) pays the Beeb & others ?

These "multi-channel" sites have been available for many years in other countries ,,in particular Spain
any Brit channel you require,,some local Hombre flogs & sets it up for you for 50-100 euros,,
Beeb,s always a favourite over there,,,,,and no license fee too,,lovely jubbly eh!
 
I don't watch TV, so I have no personal interest. Many here use FilmOn.com and use their TV set as a monitor and quite a few use the aforementioned expat shield. Sky, although illegal here, gets installed using a UK address and we have one or two ex-UK satellite TV engineers living here too. Strictly speaking, all of it is illegal, whether you pay a subscription or not. The legal subscription for BBC Prime was 89 pounds per year - fine if you want to watch endless repeats of "Ready Steady Cook" and similar programmes. But in this technical age, there is very little to stop you watch or downloading what you want for free if you are that way inclined.
