Interestingly, if you look at the FAQ on that website, about 3/4 the way down
the page, it talks about CAMs - which you no longer need for Top-up TV, but
which you can use for
http://www.setanta.com/en/UK/How-to-subscribe/Freeview/Freeview-FAQ/
and other providers, presumably. These CAMs seem to be available from Comet and
Argos, although I haven't looked hard for them on those sites.
The point is, that it may be possible to easily come by CAMs for use with
Freeview in the UK if that is desired.
