Buying a DSTV decoder

[Psykro]

I have just moved and the new place only has a satellite dish, no aerial. Previous owners had DSTV.

I usually watch my shows via "other means" *cough* but I am thinking of getting DSTV easyview for the free to air channels.

Can I just pop down to my local Game to pickup the decoder/smart card/apply for the package etc or do I have to go to a specialist DSTV/Satellite store.

If you couldn't just pop down to your and buy one, why would Game sell them?

What McGuywer means (in his own surly way) is that yes you can pop in & buy one at any store that sells them?

Yip. What I meant and R13... said.

If you signup for easyview, pay for the entire year - if you do you get one month free and save R20.

Why dont you give toptv a go?

I didnt know if Game sold them in the first place, hence the question.

From what I read, TopTV wont be compatible with a DSTV dish ?

Just tried to view the packages/pricing for Top TV, keep getting redirected to a mobi site which has no useful information.

Clearly they dont like Ubuntu users.

Each decoder has a signup form in the box, so just fill it in & fax or scan/email it as requested
TopTV dish points in a different direction
