My wife is from Taiwan (we live in california) and she wanted Taiwan TV. We usually go shopping in a Chinese area near us and every weekend they usually have many vendors show up and sell stuff on the sidewalk. One of these is a company selling a satillite receiver (with a larger than normal dish) to get Taiwan channels. For $200usd they sold us the equipment we needed *and* installed it in July heat. Well worth it. That poor guy was on my roof for two hours.

I'm sure if you go to the french area, or even just a market that specialises in French stuff), you can find a similar deal.
