Me, I'm using a skystar 2 and a dxr3. I'm also using the xine plugin for remote viewing (i.e. viewing tv on my laptop). > > Also I wish to view pay channels with it.

IIRC ~40? for a new skystar2 (plus shipping) and 10? for a second hand dxr3. Using softdevice or xine you can use vdr with just a budget card.
