If you are a non techy and just want a simple life, of watching a bit of freesat via your satellite dish, maybe getting an iptv sub and watching iptv. Bit of netflix or amazon movies. Then android boxes are an easy choice. The Formuler boxes are good for this. But basically all you are really getting is a faster more powerful firestick (which can do the same thing)
If you like to be a bit more hands on, more of a personalised look, whether that be like sky or virgin etc then enigma2 boxes are what a good majority use. But they do take a little more effort to setup. But plenty of help and info around on the various satbox forums. Easy peasy when you get your head around it.
Thanks brother for detailed overview...i am interested in exploring the things around rather than only watching tv😀
