Breaking News "&TV HD" Started On Intelsat 20 @ 68.5°E

[Tillu]

I just have one fear that if TLC HD and Animal Planet HD do not get added on other DTH platforms soon then they will also shut down like Romedy Now. MTV indies will also soon become SD channel like what happened with Bindass Play (erstwhile UTV Stars)

Adding HBO Defined HD ,HBO Hitz(hopes are alive with Star shares) HD and EPIC HD..NGC Wild HD Fox Life HD..to list

ZEE following the market only, M Tunes is the only HD Music channels and shows same songs days and night. I saw Jee Kar Da song of Badlapur song twice or thrice in a day rest all the time time Ads does we require such HD channels which not having proper rights ? Also its upto operator to carry &TV HD no matter whatsoever if they don't add this channel then also we have to pay for a service and if they add the channel then also we have to pay for a service.

All the music channels are repeating the songs through the day but there is difference that mtunes is HD channel and because of these new GEC channels the ops are increasing the package rates and most of the time we are watching this channel.Just before the addition the ops are hiking the package prices.

Tats true but what about that when operators hiking prices without any addition ?

Also additions are on Operators hand specially those operators who don't have space

The conclusion is the channel is launched for the 12 min ad cap only.

 

[DashMajor]

But they're investing on it also.

 

[Technoglitch]

why to invest? it is just to evade the tax payment citing the loss incurring for the channels. Zee bought 9x just to show teleshopping ?

 

[DashMajor]

But 9X is only available to dishtv so other DTH users are not affecting from it.

 

[Technoglitch]

you are missing my point, these new channels are for tax evasion and nothing more than that. We are happy with what we watch but these broadcasters bring new channels each day and millions ask DTH ops to add them which would pressurize the company,
Still people are demanding to see zpremiere on d2h.

 

[DashMajor]

But even after high demand d2h added Zee Premiere does Zee pressurized d2h ? If that Zee Premiere own by Star then surely it will come first just like Star CJ 2

 

[Technoglitch]

Stop comparing everything with star and it was added without no hike in base pack amount. it is not about star or zee, but reduntant channels that we are forced to pay.
&tv would fantasize by everyone and be ditched later.
