Good Old Cable TV is the Best. DTH is becoming unaffordable day by day, already to watch all channels excluding specials, in Tata Sky one has to pay almost Rs. 1000 for 2 Tv's, in Dish TV too there are many channels excluded in even the highest pack and one has to pay around Rs. 1400 to view all channels excluding specials on 2 TV's, in Videocon d2h too one has to pay around Rs. 800 for 2 TV's to view all channels except specials, in airtel one has to pay around Rs. 850 for 2TV's to view all channels except specials.
I am talking about ROI Channels in the abive para, for south it even costs more in some cases.
I am myself planning to just keep 2 airtel STB's active along with 1 Hathway digital cable STB. Videocon d2h STB's are slow plus all their standard definition channels have irritating Bluish Color Tone thus giving poor picture, had raised issue with them but they do not listen. Airtel is much more responsive, got many issues corrected by talking to uplinking team in airtel. Tata Sky is hopeless, i have no hopes from them. Dish TV is still very costly
The way DTH costs are rising, a normal person cannot afford viewing TV now. GovernemEnt should immediaTely abolish Entertainment Tax on TV Viewing. Each state is levying very high entertainment tax plus these DTH ops are also digging a hole in the customer's pocket.
