No.  As far as I know, you can only rent them.

You will see Ignite set-top boxes for sale on eBay from time to time.  As far as I know, the only legal way to "own" one of these is to incur a non-return fee.  However, if you purchase one of those units, I doubt that Rogers will activate it on your account.

No and they are going up to $17/month on Sep 17, 2024.

Which is despicable by Rogers towards its customers.

That's ridiculous! Time to find a new provider.

Agree 100%.

It is a rip to start with you can't buy a box, now they almost double the price to rent a additional box to beat the pressure of raising rates on the packages - sneaky as far as I'm concerned. I sent one back to just keep my costs down - So now they lose as I just use other means to watch.. Rogers claims it - the price increase is needed - well if others NEW instead of just paying the bill and started to drop extra boxes- they will not gain. All these giants go to rents or adding products through subscriptions to gain revenue without the reprecussion of full outright increase in base cost

yes but which provider?

Then these stupid Media giants wonder why people switch to things like Fire Sticks.
