ICASA awards pay-TV licenses

[KikzAzz]

So if I want to subscribe to all I would need like 5 decoder thingys Gonna need a moerese big TV cabinet now not to mention a place to keep all the cables, will I need 5 sat dishes as well.

LOL!

Don't forget the happy pills, falling over the cables and not being able to find the right remote by induce a bit of anxiety and stress. Once you kicked the big screen to pieces in a fit of anger you may even suffer from depression!

if the sport stays on SS I gues I won't be changing

I have to admit, I only got DSTV because they stopped airing the Formula Schumi, correction, Formula 1 on SABC.

ICASA should have turned Telkom down over them not supplying SLAs - if they are filling the network with ADSL2 how is that going to effect everyone

 

[schchris]

I will go with any network that lets me pay per channel, better yet video on demand will be better.

I'll be going with the first service that can offer me sport (especially rugby) and movies in HD!

Telkom Media is owned by Telkom (66%), Anant Singh’s Videovision Entertainment (15%), Given Mkhari’s MSG Africa Media, WDB Investment Holdings (5%), a staff incentive trust (4%) and a broad based black economic empowerment shareholder (5%).

Is the last one Ivy or Sexwale?

wow

It said it aims to offer a wide range of programmes based on "Christian lifestyle principles", saying that 80% of the South African population is Christian

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_africa

According to the latest 2001 national census, Christians accounted for 79.7% of the population. This includes Zion Christian 11.1%, Pentecostal (Charismatic) 8.2%, Catholic 7.1%, Methodist 6.8%, Dutch Reformed 6.7%, Anglican 3.8%, and other Christian 36%. Islam accounted for 1.5% of the population, Hinduism about 1.3%. 15.1% had no religious affiliation, 2.3% were other and 1.4% were unspecified.

wow are .3 % out in their figures.

i don't really buy these stats - 36% from ' other ' ? Thats a huge number of 'other' christian populace.

And just because 80% are born into ' christian ' families it simply doesnt equate that they will want to spend their days watching nutters like Benny Hinn and those other comedians/conmen. We have more than enough of what is called ' commercial religion ' programming.

Don't you just love that spiritual term - commercial religion !!
