Yeah your spot on I think, you get a +1 version of a channel you don't get lol, I'm not sure we get STV (Our awful ITV region) here, that's only a good thing! Its absolutely cringe TV.I've done the same both with my Wetek Play and a Samsung TV with a built-in DVB-C tuner at my parents' house (they can get cable in a town of ~15,000 people whereas here in Worcester with ~100,000 the entire city has never been covered by Virgin or its predecessors at all!)
BBC One, BBC Two, ITV, C4, C5 and I think a couple of random ones like ITV3+1 (but not ITV3) are FTA on the network, and everything else is encrypted.
I seem to remember at one point (in the days where it was widely pirated before the encryption updates), there was one FTA channel with some kind of amnesty notice telling anyone that could see that channel that their dodgy box would stop working soon and to subscribe legitimately!
