Has anyone discovered you can watch on demand shows with the tv mini hd?

I ordered one and while it was in transit i read some reviews on the product. one person mentioned they were watching on demand shows with it.

Within an hour of watching the content from the tv mini, i discovered certain channels are reserved for on demand and they are NOT encrypted. Apparently, if someone orders a show and lives close by, you can pick the show up. Within an hour of clicking those channels, I found people had ordered hbo's entourage, superman lives, food network on demand, and an amateur porno. That right, i was watching the last 15 mins of some porn on demand and I couldn't believe it!

The question I have is how far away can someone be for me to be able to pick up their on demand selection?

Afterward i was thinking who ordered a porn at 5pm today? Do they live in my building? hmm

It will be insteresting to scan those channels late at night to see what people are ordering

When I first got my HDTV with QAM tuner, I stumbled upon these OnDemand channels as well. It took me a while to figure out that they weren't regular channels. I didn't realize what it was until the person fast forwarded the movie.

Anyways, I've watched few movies with my mystery neighbors. Sometimes, we can get through the movie without a pee break. Other times, it's annoying when the neighbor pauses and/or stops the movie. I've also watched a few movies in disjointed spurts over the course of a couple days. It's kinda fun!

The best part is trying to figure out who the guy is that's ordering porn at 3 in the afternoon.

That would be me. Hi neighbor!

This OnDemand eavesdropping also works with VCRs on hotel networks (LodgeNet). The best part is watching people browse the OnDemand menu. Sometimes they even reveal their identites by going to their account section of the menu where it lists their name. One time someone from my travel party revealed himself in this way and then proceeded to order a porn. Hilarious!
