Digital TV migration will cost you

... and the DTT saga continues ...

Sometimes I wonder if I'll get to see the working thing before I die of old age...
 
I don't want TV. I have a TV though. Will they force me to pay like they do currently? No?

Here's hoping!
 
Now if only we had something to watch on the digital TV. I wish they would bring the Test pattern back... now that was quality TV... none of this crap they have on today.

+1 At least then people won't have to 'denature' their tv's to claim that they cannot receive a signal, and therefore not have to pay. Although surely dstv will still work with older tv's, because in essence it is already a set top box, so these people will still need to pay tv licenses :(
 
What a relief another cost I will not have to pay as I dont watch the the crap any how. I have no intention to by a new TV as I dont even have DSTV (The Repeat Station.) I have not swiched on in many years now. At least the bloody theaves will have one Item less to steel. As far as the poor go, who cares as it is them who break into houses to steel your TV which they do not need a license for, now we will not have to subsadise them a back door to theft. As we susadise them for Rates, Electricity and other services.

ROFL!
Yup, yup ... I used to set my cheap but uber cool Chinese watch to the Test pattern's time.
 
Silly, slightly off topic question : When they move to digital will they be transmitting in HD or SD?

Test pattern... sheehs, I used to watch my microwave ovens plate go round and round and round and round.. much more interesting, and no cheesy music except for a melodious "TING" when it was done.
 
Pity the people who only have the SABC's CR@P to watch...
