Has anyone heard of or use this site: tvshowaccess

I would quite like to get hold of the new SG1 and Atlantis episodes, and this site seems to offer them legally.  I didn't think this was possible? Is it as legal as they say?  It seems to good to be true at £18 for a lifetime membership.......so what's the catch?

Hidden in the bottom of the first page.  They are not legal.   They are skirting the issue and hoping you won't read it all.

And a lifetime membership?  With the way some of these types of sites are getting crushed, just how good do you think that guarantee is?  Something smells really fishy.  I think they are looking for some sheep to fleece before they close up shop and run off.

You can find sites that let you download the same thing for free.  Don't pay a crook.
