yes....RIO is the stumbling block.....but DTH is there to make some money....

“The logic to me is unclear, why would consumers want to pay for a repeat content? The move makes sense when the channel experiments by bringing in original content for the same audiences”

If they're planning to use STAR Utsav as a Carriage fee option then I don't think they're doing anything special as all Big broadcasters making up for popular channel buckled up less popular channels atleast in DTH / Big MSOs. We just witnessing that FOX LIFE HD getting added in d2h because of SMS HD.

With this planning what I able to understand that they wants to get rid of Free Dish and want dishtv and all Small MSOs to took signals directly from Broadcasters rather then FTA way. Means they completely own the rights to sell the channel for free rather then let it for free.

You will get to see when ADTV will add SMS HD and FOX Life HD together or in some time frame. Just note somewhere whichever DTH going to add or willing to add SMS HD will add add Fox Life HD also ;)

So most probably next no. is of ADTV :woot:

It is up to the content provider and platforms for the deal to work out and give the channels at a bundled rate. This is how the deal works out.
