The Truth Behind Satellite TV for PC Revealed - Scam or Scam-free?

Since the time of its debut in 2005, the controversial Satellite TV for PC still remains one of the most popular and best selling Internet TV software among it peers. That can be contributed to either a hi-tech TV player or outstanding marketing campaign. But in this case, it may very well be both.

The officials at SatelliteSoft certainly have made some bold and dashing statements that have dazzled many people while creating skepticism in others. Which brings us to these questions. Can this software really deliver on its promise and turn a computer into a super TV instantly while providing a safe and legal gateway to Internet TV? Can users download and install the software TV player without the risk and being scammed? Don't expect the answer "No" to apply to any of the above questions.

As the TV for PC software continues its journey to remain as a top seller, there comes plenty of hype and misleading content particularly when using the term "Satellite TV.While home TV networks convert various signals from the air to provide the TV we love, Internet TV players or software do exactly the opposite.

The Satellite TV for PC, also called proprietary software, can be defined as a specially designed hi-tech Internet media tool or TV player programmed to access, retrieve, and stream 1000s of clips, text, audio and video media files from the Public Domain and World Wide Web. The streaming affect makes the TV player intriguing as it steams the channel (media file) into smaller pieces, then brings the media file across the computer's I.P. address right to the computer.

This streaming process allows the viewer to watch a TV show immediately on his/her browser or TV player. In other words, viewers don't have to wait for the entire downloading process to finish in order to watch a particular channel. Also the user owns the proprietary software, in this case, the TV for PC, and can install the software on as many computers as s/he likes. However, the merchant's Copyrights policy must be adhered to.

Many times these products do work initially and perform well. I downloaded and tested the Elite edition as well as other top Internet TV software. But the Pro, Elite and Titanium Editions will only work with Windows-based computers. In addition, you don't get a stand-alone software because it relies on other software to work. As for the majority of Satellite Internet TV software on the Net today including the TV for PC, they rely on the free Windows Media Player, RealPlayer, and Microsoft .Net Frameswork.

You can single out any top-of-the-line software, download and install it on a compatible computer, and in most cases it will work. Consequently, in rare cases, the TV player may not perform right away after installing it. Does this mean a SCAM? No! Lets say the user followed the downloading and installation instructions correctly, then installed all the necessary free software according to the user's operating system but the TV for PC software didn't work. In rare cases, a software-to-computer compatibility problem could occur.

Generally speaking, when something like this happens the computer's firewall (anti-virus) can keep the Satellite TV for PC (TV player) from working. In this situation, the user must give his/her firewall permission to accept the TV for PC software so it can work. Can other problems occur to cause a software not to work? Yes! The free Windows Media Player and/or RealPlayer may need some minor adjustments.

Make no mistake, there have been some negative remarks made about the Satellite TV for PC Pro, Elite and Titanium Editions, including similar products more or less. Such as having no video, TV player not working, can't get a refund, mostly foreign and religious channels, lousy video, etc. However when looking at the old 2006 and 2007 versions, the merchant's new 2008 version seems to have addressed and resolved many of these pass issues.

The Satellite TV for PC 2008 Editions now has a new sleeker look with better channel selections, including additional features such as "Record" and "Favorites." No crappy or broken channels, the user get a better video/audio quality, faster loading and playback time, and an user-friendly interface.

Since no one computer will be alike once used, even with the same make and model, the only sure way of knowing if the Pro, Elite or Titanium will work will be to download it. Pay the small one-time downloading fee to test it. The user can always request a refund within the 60-day money back guarantee from Clickbank. I can honestly say that I've had the pleasure of during business with this online company for a number of years. Many people including myself find them to be a very trustworthy e-commerce sales/refund processor. I consider these guys my security blanket when all fails, and find them to be very competent when handling these types of transactions.
