I didn't buy my line from here I got from 2 suppliers I have been using for a while now. So I have 2 different lines setup on my box in oscam so that just picks the fastest one when viewing.
why you got 2 lines?

Good point just get both for the best of both worldsVM for broadcast quality HD and iptv for 3pm. 1 yr sub to both is still less than a monthly sub for sly/VM.
;-)
I run two lines as well. The full tv bundle is around £80 so I'm not sure where you get £170 a month from.why you got 2 lines?

If there a provider issue you don't notice. As it switches to the other. Plus there is less glitching as it picks the server with the fastest response. Both my lines are stable enough to watch on there own, but seeing as they are cheap enough it's nice to have the back up.
I don't really understand the £40 and rouges gallery comment as someone selling a cheaper line will probably be getting more customers hence revenue to fund the server. If it is £15 or £100 they are both selling a cs service both rouges same as us for useing it
It's all about the maths, say a server costs £10k/year to run, provider A is charging £100/year the costs are covered by 100 users, provider B that charges £15/year needs 667 users to cover the costs. Now saying the providers are not being greedy and both want to make £10k/year profit from each server. Provider A at £100 a sub he just needs 200 users, provider B at £15 year he needs 1334 users, or maybe he's using a less powerful server to save a few quid so would not need quite that number of users.I don't really understand the £40 and rouges gallery comment as someone selling a cheaper line will probably be getting more customers hence revenue to fund the server.

Which of the 2 servers do we think is going to be the most realiable/stable server at peak times?
These figures are not real, costs could be higher or lower but whatever they are it's the same issue lower costs = more users on server = more chance of overloading.
You should be able to get a good server for about £20-£30 / year in the UK,
Maths lesson over, don't forget your homework for next lesson

Maybe, well if you're the only one who buys 2 lines then no as you still have 1332 others on the servver, but if everyone had 2 lines then they would only need 667 customers so the service would improve but everyone's cost has doubled.aha, but if you buy 2 lines off that overloaded server does that mean you get a better service? lol
Wow you really think eBay brought cs to a end. Most got fleeced how do you know this do you control all sales on there? I've had plenty of lines from there with no problem. It means I can have backup in place and still pay less.Do you have any idea how much a full sub costs on a vm card? Racing Uk is more than your £15 a month line.
Your little £80 bundle is the norm for a genuine sub, you haven't factored in all the add ons.
You have a lot to learn if you believe that £15 lines generate more lines, therefore server maintained
Have you noticed sky's gone dark?
Never used to be dark until eBay etc started the £15 lines and funnily enough most got fleeced and then came here. Same things happened on here, prices being undercut and hence the Rogues gallery for members who apparently ripped people off.
If you think the cheaper the better then fair play, if you think it funds a server better, your in dreamland. Just saying......oh and one line is suffice.
I've never had a problem with my servers watching Ppv or footy(useing single line) I've read on here that guys have problems with there servers recommended from here. Now I'm not saying it don't get fixed (sometimes it hasn't and others get involved) as we can all have a issue.It's all about the maths, say a server costs £10k/year to run, provider A is charging £100/year the costs are covered by 100 users, provider B that charges £15/year needs 667 users to cover the costs.

Sly we're working on Icam long before any of that. They rolled it out in Italy a couple of years ago, they also had to develop and test it. This has been a long time being implemented, long before the the explosion on those sitesEbay etc, facebook, gumtree, twitter, you got me now. The best kept secret was destroyed by those mentioned and I'm not sure how long you've been involved in the c/s game but not so long ago we had full HD, which IMHO went tits up due to all the names mentioned. When forums first started the word "Server" was an instant ban. Now whilst we have one thread on TK which is then taken up privately by members, they're are many other forums now which are as open as you like. Why you may ask? because if you can be as open about it on Ebay etc, then the forums had to adapt.
With regards to me controlling ebay sales and saying most got fleeced, I'm sure there are many on here that will agree that the number of folk who arrive on the TK doorstep have been shafted by those on that site. Just read through the posts on the request threads and its all there to see. Those are the facts!
