Reference: I hope you are not casting stones already? You know, sometimes When you preach morality to substantiate a draconian policy or system, it's usually difficult excluding you from being the architect of such system.. 3 Likes |

This write-up is a paid job! Nothing more. The writer just selected countries that pays higher. Even comparing us to US and UK. Are the content the same? 4 Likes |

I am very sure many people on this thread didn't read the article. Nigerian always want to eat their cake and have it. Even with operational cost, our price is still the cheapest in the whole world, yet we would still complain. Them no force una to pay o. If una no want make una hang antenna for house. 2 Likes |

soberdrunk:Cost of doing biz in Naija is expensive, but there has to be other ways to subsidize for the Naija market, cos cost of living here is not the same as other countries. |

OP you didn’t mention the internet access that comes with those plans or that they also offer pay per view packages. Also, content matters. If you are a soccer fan, you get to watch epl, Ligue 1, Serra A, budesliga, friendlies and other pre season comps, With Dstv you only get some of these. I haven’t even mentioned other prime time shows you get to see as early as they are aired not 2 weeks later. Dstv can do better but since they have no competition, they can do anyhow! |

beethoven:I don't have a problem with their price increase (to some extent, paytv is a luxury) but that " They do not make as much as we perceive?" Nah! You don't know these guys. The parent company of this paytv(DStv), Naspers, has some of the most lucrative brands in Africa including; Mtn, Mnet/multichoice and Supersport. They made a fortuitous investment in Tencent ( one of the world's most valuable startups at a point) in 2001 that has valued their stake at over 100 bn USD. Naspers was also recently the most Valuable Company in Africa by Market Capitalization. If they don't make as much as we perceive then I can say with boldness that I played Deadpool in the recent Deadpool 2 sequel. 1 Like |

Re: Another Look At Pay TV Cost by ezehisaac(m): 2:07am On Jul 30, 2018 |
This is nonsense I pay $5 monthly for entry level and watch live premier leagues across Europe including fox channels, zee channels, RT, CNN, BBC etc. $100 yearly for premium which also has all the channels above and some more. Verdict: You can’t compare Nigeria to those countries. None of them have a minimum wage that is less than $1000, that’s why an average person can comfortably pay even $100 per month for the subscriptions. When you cross the borders of this Which way Nigeria? |
