    It depends how much do you want to spend money and what features you want.
    It should be based on Linux?

      Hello toby69

      I think that DM500HD is the best value for money.
      Is as fast as dm800, don't has usb , but save 100E (to dm800) .

      If the money isn't problem for you.... buy DM800se or even better DM8000.

          lets put it this way for the Overpriced original DM500HD that retails for around £349 here you can get a VU+ Duo or an ET9000 twin tuner receiver.

          Thats just my opinion i think all the DM's are highly overated and over priced compared to other boxes.

          And please do not let anyone talk you into getting a clone DM yes they are half the price but come with no end of trouble.

          just my 2 cents

              I hear the new Eagle box is supposed to be very good for the money.
              Its a clone box, based on the DreamBox 800 HD.
              rumors its engima based so all the software you would run on your dreambox - should run on the eaglebox 800 HD.
              Its currently pre-order, sid to be out this month. October 2011.
              Price ive seen around £89.

                Linux is the operating system, usually enigma2. This makes it user customisable.

                I tend to agree with digicon's comments - for value for money you can't go far wrong with a Vu+ Duo or ET9000.

                      also ignoring me a little what i can read it has a dvb.s2 tuner so it can take hd channels
                      i could understand that he wanted a new 1 if the 1 he got couldn't take hd channels

                        thanks all, for all your help, yes spiderbox i got is hd, and as i have only had this box since febuary must get some use of it, ethernet now seems more stable than previous service+, but also have a newcamd line for sly, so no complaints, like start of thread just keeping options open for the future.
