I am lucky enough to be able to watch live football from anywhere in the world on my computer.I watch alone in my house,and I live in the UK.Am I doing anything illegal?.I believe it is done via proxy servers.I think the server is based in one of the Scandinavian countries.On a more general note,Can anyone please explain to me in simple terms,how this is done?. Thanks for any replies.

Ben it's kinda easy , someone have a box that can record a few channels and he have some high bandwith , he record the channels and send it to a server and the server send it to clients

I am sure Benidormgary has worked it out in the four years since that post........I'll close the thread
