Finally the expected news has arrived. Its going to be another round of fight between Hathway and MSM.

Hathway should close their business if they can't maintain good relation and ability to tackle broadcasters.

SONY Liv and Liv Sports available in Hathway

Finally MSM wants to join RIO race as Hathway CEO months ago indicated that its not a good option for MSM and Indiacast to go Ala carte route.

Also SONY chooses a right time as SIX will broadcast looser BCCI XI's Tour of Sri Lanka and rest for the entire year they will remain dry and out except MAX and SAB I don't think any channel is popular enough infront of Lower and Mid Tier Users.

*( I am not counting Premium users who watch English channels )

 

[DashMajor]

Let SONY do whatever they wants to do these channels will ultimately buckled up into the base pack soon with a big fat hike.

So all are going RIO way

Yeah.. Looks like all of them have taken the decision collectively. Next turn would be Viacom's

So its party time for Hathway users. Is this decision region specific or nationally?

It will be nationally as most of the time they do deal for all the regions
