How do they do it in the more civilized parts ? I assume sat broadcasts
are encoded in other continents as well, otherwise anyone with a $200
sat dish can just get any channel for free, and I do know NDS have nice

Yes they are, altough the channel selection is limited, and in the
analog case you don't need a special DVB card (mostly as a DVB is used
to get digital broadcasts) but a simple tuner card with a frame grabber
that you can grab at your local computer bargain bin for something like
100NIS.
