Satellite TV online?

I was doing some looking around and stumbled upon some sites promoting satellite TV stations from all over the world for one time download costs of around 50 bucks.. are these (or any of them) legit? Seems kinda too easy to me.
I didn't list any of the providers, this is a copy of my search page. keywords watch tv on your pc,

watch tv on your pc - Yahoo! Search Results

"whatcha yall thinning bout dis?" = what do you think?

Most of them are illegal and don't work. My suggestion if you really must watch TV is to get a VPN service that gives you a US IP address then you can use the US network catch-ups etc.

Denise, a number of great deals on the internet exist only so you'll give them your credit card number. And then hold on, because all kinds of charges will start to happen as the information gets resold.

If it sounds too good to be true? You know there's a scam.
