Setanta might very well have started up on Top Up TV but someone forgot to tell Setanta that Mediagard’s now been hacked and offers no security. It’s on Wikipedia and I guess we will be watching SPL and Premiership matches for free once the cloned cards start to be sold on in smoke filled rooms around the UK.
The Wikipedia article on Setanta gave the following links:

You’re well out of date with your posting, mate. It’s already been done. If you’ve got a digital TV, PVR or anything else with a CAM slot then high power Conditional Access Modules like the Dragon, Reality and other super CAMs have no problem viewing Setanta or any other Mediaguard encrypted channels. They’re readily available in the UK for a one-off cost from a number of suppliers like http://www.brymar.co.uk/acatalog/Satellite_CAM_s.html, http://www.boxsat.com/index.html and others but it’s advisable to check about compatibility.
