Telkom Internet ADSL surprise: uncapped DStv, media, gaming data

[Raphael123]

Eish if only Netflix & Hulu were covered!

So what about Podcasts on Apple TV? cos that works through the iTunes store doesnt it?

Helkom is doing this to stay relevant, suppose its a step in the right direction but over the years you have shafted your broadband customers and when the time comes to unbundle the local loop people will run far away from you.

Great news even though i am not a ADSL subscriber. These days Telkom and Telkom mobile are full of surprises and becoming competitive.

Well that would be a game changer.... but I doubt it

We can ask ranger

What exactly on Apple TV would it support? Obv not netflix/Hulu etc?

Videos from iTunes.

We can't do Netflix or Hulu, as they have no legal/commercial presence in SA.

How does Telkom differentiate what you are streaming? Which apps on the samsung smart TV does this special apply to?

This is really great news - well done Telkom!

I am particularly interested in the use with an Apple TV - is this limited to movies rentals and purchases? Or does it include music, podcasts, news, etc?

Also can one use one's iPhone / iPad in the same manner? And then are app downloads and updates also included?
