Sports channels are being distributed by ESS team directly. However other star and zee channels are being distributed by Media Pro.
So, their relation and professional terms with Media Pro seems to be perfect. Even I think it's good with ESS team too but now I think SS2 might have brought some distances between them and hence SS2 is still missing on d2h.
D2h has always provided all such channels being demanded by their users. So, if Star a Sports 2 is missng on their platform, I am sure it must be ESS who is at fault and not videocon.
