EntMnt Xclusive MSM channels to be discontinued on Tata Sky

[IndianMascot]

IM bro i will wait but for more fights of broadcasters with tata sky

Nothing new. We have seen fights between Dish TV vs broadcaster. Even d2h keep issuing notices to various channels. Infact their dispute with Jaya Group went to TDSAT.

Airtel too have issued similar notices in newspaper before. Now today its Tata Sky, tomorrow it will be some other operator.

Is the reason is same for TS & Hathway??

yes.

mine questions r as follows :

1) msm channels r being removed from base packs - might b bcoz of msm group
Q - y msm wanted to get its channels 2 b removed from tata sky platform ? this is from tata sky n not from msm.

2) when star is a part of tata then y all the packs of tata r so costly. except 240 wala pack, every other packs r so costly as compared to adtv , dish or d2h.

3) STBs - y tata sky has not been providing recording facilities in their sd as well as hd boxes.
on the other hand dish tv n adtv provides recording facilities in their sd n hd boxes both while d2h provides it in only hd boxes.

4) y ten channels r not being a part of any base pack.
dish tv - 295 rs pack . adtv 340 wala pack n d2h 325 wala pack provide all ten channels in ther respective packs.
if dish does not want ten channels to b included in any base pack then y tata n fox has been allowing dish to carry their star india channels in base packs. so its not dish tv's fault, tata wanted to loot their customers.

5) pq n aq - for those who have been saying n kept saying tata pq is good. i have seen its pq. except only some channels. every other channels' pq is worst. even d2h's pq is far ahead than tata sky in remaining channels.

1) msm channels r being removed from base packs - might b bcoz of msm group
Q - y msm wanted to get its channels 2 b removed from tata sky platform ? this is from tata sky n not from msm.

Its a simple answer. Deal between them didn't matured.

2) when star is a part of tata then y all the packs of tata r so costly. except 240 wala pack, every other packs r so costly as compared to adtv , dish or d2h.

OK. Why d2h copied Tata Sky HD Access Module ?

3) STBs - y tata sky has not been providing recording facilities in their sd as well as hd boxes.
on the other hand dish tv n adtv provides recording facilities in their sd n hd boxes both while d2h provides it in only hd boxes.

Even d2h not providing this. So ?

4) y ten channels r not being a part of any base pack.
dish tv - 295 rs pack . adtv 340 wala pack n d2h 325 wala pack provide all ten channels in ther respective packs.
if dish does not want ten channels to b included in any base pack then y tata n fox has been allowing dish to carry their star india channels in base packs. so its not dish tv's fault, tata wanted to loot their customers.

Its because Ten Network made a deal like this 5 years back.

5) pq n aq - for those who have been saying n kept saying tata pq is good. i have seen its pq. except only some channels. every other channels' pq is worst. even d2h's pq is far ahead than tata sky in remaining channels.

I have used d2h and Tata Sky and have experienced ADTV . I don't see any picture quality issue from a naked human eye.

ok IM bhai ji. but y msm wanted to b completely removed from tata sky. i can understand that they wanted to b on a la carte to earn more revenue. but y they want to loose the overall revenue. so its tata who has been doing this. mentally pressure n nothing else.
if msm channels removed , then they r at no. 4 right now will b pushed further to no. 5 in terms of subscribers.

pq of adtv is way ahead than its peers. rdtv being at no.1.

if u r not allowing me to give ur channels in mine base packs then y the hellllllllllll i wud b allowing u .................
so they r doing it intentionally.

atleast they can provide recording facilities in hd boxes. y they have not been ???

every other dth has been providing such facilities then y there is an exceptional case with tata.

CONCLUSION - 1) they r not a premium dth service provider though they r the peer one.
2) they r in perfection when n while making false promises. e.g. 20 channels ll b added with in a short spam of time.
3) looting their customers by not having major channels in any base packs.
4) no services while providing sd n hd boxes - e.g. is recording facilities
5) adtv n d2h both provides free connection if u purchase with a longer term validity. y do not the tatas ???
e.g. - adtv - 4790 - new connection with 2 years' 240 wala pack is free.
adtv gives u all the hd channels @ 250 rs only along with ur primary connection's base pack in ur secondary connection without having any compulsion whther ur first or primary connection is sd or hd.

why do not tata provides the same ?

Its like Deal or no deal kind of scenario. May be MSM would have put some intangible conditions because of that Tata Sky would have been forced to do this. Don't forget that in all this its Tata Sky which suffers the most. Because every user will ask thm only noy MSM.

pq of adtv is way ahead than its peers. rdtv being at no.1.

I disagree. It looks similar to me.

atleast they can provide recording facilities in hd boxes. y they have not been ???

They have been providing lot many things like exclusive VoD, Superb Active services, Everywhere TV which many others are not providing.

2) they r in perfection when n while making false promises. e.g. 20 channels ll b added with in a short spam of time.

Neither d2h nor ADTV has fulfilled their comments published in Media.

5) adtv n d2h both provides free connection if u purchase with a longer term validity. y do not the tatas ???

Every company has its own packaging. If anyone don't like he/she is free to become other's subscriber.

T(S point of view if MSM channels are allowed to continue in ala carte, then others too will follow suit and this will hamper T(S's ARPU. hence they made a decision to drop MSM from their package.

T(S point of view is when customer's keep requesting on MSM channels then, it will be pin pointed to MSM by T(S.

what questions do u have ? i ll answer them.
