They can't do anything against ISRO.
Less chance the court will take decision against ISRO.

Why not? If they had contract their are some terms specify on it. Otherwise what use of contract?

Certainly TS is free to have the contact enforced by taking resort to a competent court of law. Only the judiciary is playing its role efficiently.

I think Tata Sky should sell its DTH business to someone else and media jockey employees should join other companies.

Breaking news: STBs will be replaced free of cost

We are replacing close to 5-6 million MPEG-2 SD STBs at no cost to consumers over the next year. All of this is coming in from internal accruals.

Indiantelevision.com's > Digital Edge> Why Tata Sky's Harit Nagpal is pained about the MPEG-4 STB rollout

 

[IndianMascot]

Now that's a big big relieving news for all users having MPEG2 STB.

Now the earlier claim of 500 million investment by Harit Nagpal seems to be justifying.

 

[Gopichand Pai]

We have been adding channels in a phased manner; the process will now be accelerated with the MPEG-4 STB. By June-July next year we should be able to revise our channel offerings to consumers

All the customers have to wait for one more year to see many new channels!

 

[IndianMascot]

One more year. and why Nagpal is thinking like this. Is he going to provide service for free till next one year.

All those who are majboor can continue Tata Sky like me. Rest all, pls move on . . . . .
