Ask a friend from India to get you a Tatasky receiver. It's dirt cheap (as little as Qrs. 30 per month) and you get to watch all the sports played in whole damn world!

Or since you are from South Africa, you could get a subscription for SuperSports package (which I believe should be much much cheaper than Showtime) get their subscription card to Doha and insert it on any receiver. Of course you need to have a slightly bigger dish to receive signals for Panamsat satellite. Same applies to Tatasky signals, you need to have a big dish to receive signals from Insat satellite.
