Anyone got Mediaset in Puglia? What do you need to be able to receive it. I know you don't need a satellite dish and the brochure says no installation - so what do you need?
What channels / programs do you get in English?
Thanks for any info / help

It's a digital terrestial service, so you need a decoder with a card slot, and a decent aerial. You can check whether the signal in your area is good enough somewhere on the mediaset site - maybe on the page I have linked to. You might already have a decoder and card slot built in to a newish television/monitor.

They do a lot of pay per view channels, probably Joi or Steel are the most interesting for English speakers, and if you look at their programme schedules on the Mediaset site it will tell you whether the films (or TV series) are transmitted in original language, or if there is a choice of languages (accessed through the decoder). There are millions of offers available - one option is that you just have to pre-charge a card with a few Euros, and top it up when you want to watch some films or football or whatever.
It's currently tying itself up with Alice home TV (internet based at present) and things change by the day!
