I have a Slingbox connected to DirecTV at my parents house. NFL Sunday Ticket FTW.

If youre on the same local network the resolution is HD (using Slingbox Pro HD from an HD source) over my home cable modem the resolution is DVD and on my Droid over 3G its VGA or QVGA. I use it mostly to watch NFL games that arent on in my area, I usually plug my laptop into my TV over HDMI and the quality isnt as good as cable of course but its much better than any online streaming sources Ive seen. Even the mobile version is better than most of the stuff you see on Ustream or similar sites. I recommend it.

They cant. The box plugs into the composite output of the DirecTV reciever then sends the signal over the local network connection and it uses IR blasters to control the box just like a normal remote. To the DirecTV box it might as well be a TV connected.
The cable company could probably block the packets sent by it if they wanted to though.
