We are going to be getting DStv soon. What do you think of the channels that are on offer at the moment? We will hopefully have it by next week.

I tried the Compact Boquet... wasnt impressed at all. Seemed to be aimed at soccer fanatics

Its cheaper than getting MNET though Isnt it? As soon as we can afford to we will up grade to the full package
DSTV is over-rated and over-priced.

I know its over rated and over priced but it is certainly better than watching the same stuff on sabc all the time. Sabc is so boring.

Just get Mnet.

, I am a compact subscriber. And its not the first tme its happened. A few occations now I have ended up watching full DSTV at R199pm.DSTV compact is not great, like everybody else here has said. We have a three year old so we downgraded as we actually hardly watch TV, so DSTV was really not worth it either. The channels that we do end up watching are realityTV, Hallmark, and animal planet etc. But most of the time we actually end up watching SABC. That is when we watch TV which is about 3 times a week.

The channels that make up the bouquet include: SuperSport 3, Hallmark, ActionX, Reality, Channel 0, BBC News, Animal Planet, Cartoon Network, SABC Africa, Rhema and TBN, with the free-to-air channels, SABC1, 2, 3, e.tv and the DStv radio channels.
according to some or other report i read
it might not be the best channels, but its better than not having it at all. although, much like everything else, the novelty can wear off

I would actually rather have MNET than DSTV compact. But they do not give you this option. In order to get only MNET you need an old MNET decoder, they do not allow you to receive MNET on its own via your DSTV decoder. That sux
I noticed
Now why can they just not charge that price and a million more would sign up tomorrow.
We have a 11 month old baby and don't get much time to watch tv either....DSTV would not be worth it.
