Subscriber selected DStv channels demanded by customers

Keep the bundles but charge a fair subscription taking into accout the dross thrown in, and bring back the Sci-fi channel. Must break up the monopoly!
 
Pointless, until the swing to the compact bouquet starts hitting DSTV's bottom line they won't budge.

I don't see what's so difficult about offering a new bouquet with the same content as Premium but no sport for about R350/mth, ATM everybody on Premium ends up sponsoring sport whether they want to or not :mad:

The petitition is definitely worth a try. At least it gets some momentum behind this. As they say, we may not win this battle, but we will win the war. Look at the success of other mass causes that succeeded - government provision of ARV's, reduced call termination, etoll, forcing education to deliver books et etc.
 
If you still have DSTV then you are a complete Dumb Nut.

You can get everything on the internet these days and you can stream all the sports on the internet.

So stop being idiots and unsubscribe!

Are you a hobo? Why do you carry blanket statements around with you?
 
You know that economies of scale benefit they kept talking about, now put that together with the fact that India has a population almost 24 times larger than South Africa and then you have your answer.

It's irritating when people say you should unsubscribe and stream it off the internet instead. The problem is it will cost you much more to get off the internet at worse quality than to just get DSTV.

If you can get a uncapped 4/10Mbps ADSl connection for less than R590 a month then please let us know.
 
When I read about all this BS multichoice is feeding us I get highly irritated. So it's only coincidental that SS1 is only available on the premium bouquet and not all the others? They should change their name to Sinhle-Decision... cos This ONE company has DECIDED for us... the good people of South Africa...

Multichoice did this because they know most of their subscribers are in it for the sport, so they only allow the sport channels on their most expensive bouquet.

:D

Exactly!
 
I think it is a good idea that one picks the channels they want to watch. I have DSTV compact, it's so ****ty yet so expensive. It's not like people are going to only buy one channel from them; DSTV could say a minimum of 15 channels must be picked.
 
I dont have DSTV due to the fact that there is no sport package.. in stead i'll stream events from Supersport using a family members account.

I also have a Sky Plus account which I could have used to stream all kinds of sports online but I haven't managed to get a VPN working, i'm lazy I guess :D

I can endure crappy stream resolutions, but would love to be able to have SSHD

I use my uncapped internet for far more than just stuff to watch, so it's not fair to say that the whole cost of my internet should be allocated to that.
I would only allocate a certain percentage of it to that, and it would be far less than the cost of premium DSTV.
