I had originally thought that DirecTV and Dish had both advertised
their PPV products to be available in 1080p, but on investigation it
seems this claim only applies to their 'on-demand' movies.

These are, I suppose, 'downloadable products' in the strictest sense,
but I think you're still required to view them via the satellite
receiver, thus still needing a capture device for Myth.
