Gulf Daily News has reported that providers of illegal Dreambox services are witnessing a major drop in demand following the introduction of hi-tech encryption technology by major operators like Orbit Showtime Network (OSN) and Pehla, who are reporting an increase in subscribers as people sign up for their legitimate services.

Orbit Showtime Network (OSN) is pulling its headquarters from Bahrain and moving to Dubai within the next six months, according to Gulf Daily News. Company officials claimed the decision had been taken in response to a perceived lack of action against satellite piracy in Bahrain. An official also added that all service facilities will go on as usual and customers will not face any problems.
