Same way toyin subair got the then minister of Information, and his best friend, frank nweke jn, to unfairly withdraw multichoices' right to EPL matches and give to hitv. Thank God karma came back to bite hitv in the ass. M sure one of the members of the house of reps, or their sponsors or cronies, is about to enter the cable market hence this obnoxious bill. 2 Likes |

akinsadeez: [b]So we are on the same page.. Football.. Whoever handled the market research for HITV should be caught and killed. The Federal Government should stop gettin involved in business. Cable TV is not a right. Its purely business. They should create the atmosphere for competition to thrive. Give concession to new businesses like access to low interest loans, but whatever they do, they shouldnt go fhucking with another mans business. The lessons to be learnt here goes beyond DSTV but business in general. Nigerian business people are too complacent. Its as if the moment they sort of start cruising in business, they put the business on cruise control and lean back, rather than try to keep flying higher. If DSTV were a Nigerian owned company, they wouldnt be DSTV we know Today. The next thing that would happen soon would be the bundle pack of TV, Phone and Internet.. Most likely a collabo between MTN and Multichoice and that would just bury all competitors flat. DSTV has raised the Bar high.. Rather than for the government to reduce that bar, they should put in pplace things to facilitate easy access into the business world. Example:: How about they fix power supply?! Or better yet lower the cost of diesel which powers the entire businesses in Nigeria?! If the house of Reps is serious about combating monopoly, they should look towards Dangote and the Chagouri families (Stallion group).. [/b] 6 Likes |

emmanuel4758: You cant touch a company like Multichoice.. Cable TV is not part of your constitutional right. The worst the government can do is to open up a cable company. And on that front, I wish them luck. 2 Likes |

LilPeezy:multi tv ghana are annoying and local?... I dont know if u reason well. How many channels in Nigeria show u new and latest movies, premier league matches and doesnt even charge u 1 naira. If not for Multi tv, entertainment would be for those that can afford it. If its me, i will create channels that show attractive things...in this way i attract alot of viewers and charge any amount for advertisement. |

DSTV is giving good services,why shouldn't they be paid well? Nobody is under obligation to be on Premium bouquet.I love my football and I pay for it.,,,nobody courted me to buy a dstv decoder.Its a choice thing,someone else can be on access bouquet and pay N1500 monthly,and enjoy his or her African magic. People stay at Beer parlours and guzzle tons of beer and isiewu on a daily basis spending thousands of Naira and some neither smoke nor drink.....but spends theirs on DSTV like us. Politicians should let DSTV be and go fix our Electricity,Roads and other infrastructures to be working well ,....most of them don't even pay subscription o...its free for them mtcheeeew! 3 Likes |

akinsadeez: Nahh, NTA is lousy, poor visual and audio quality and very low quality programming. They're just finally going digital, they've been refusing to buy content except for Latin tv dramas. A lot of people are developing content but I don't know if they're planning on offering it to NTA. 1 Like |

emmanuel4758: [b]I will start from the Bible; Matt 26: 11 - The poor you will always have with you Its not about too much money or not.. This is business not Charity.. That London you are talking about, Cable is not free. And this is not a 'Conspiracy Theory' I wonder where that came from, its just simply analysing the situation on Gorund. I would love it if all the seats on a Plane were like Business Class seats and we all got the same treatment as the Business class flyers do, but sadly, better service = more money. This is Basic Economics 101. I would like for all Mercedes Benz cars to cost the same as Kias and toyotas, but unfortunately, that kind of luxury and craftsmanship costs a shiitload more money... I would love it if all my suits were Italian and swiss hand crafted, but that kind of quality does not come cheap.. If you cant afford the Premium package, get the cheaper packages. DSTV is not the only cable satellite company in Nigeria.. Startimes, MetroTV, CMTV, CTL, etc... Why do you have your eyes on DSTV?!! Cos you want the best.. SIMPLE!! Why havent you asked the government to force Coscharis to reduce the cost of Bentleys and Benz's?! [/b] 5 Likes |
Re: Reps Move To End Dstv Monopoly by mecussey(m): 9:38am On Oct 23, 2014 |
iyobs7: Good point...Dstv demand should drop if actually the price is high according to Economics otherwise, they have the value for the cost. Nigeria should think of solving our basic problems like electricity, security and road network. Leave private firms to do their business, they are not collecting the money at gun point. Imagine NTA having 1979 picture quality 2 Likes |

First of all we need decoders that don't take 2 years to booth up or scan. Even Ebola scan doesn't take that long. All the countries (African) I've been to, as u put it on, voilĂ , u enjoy ur football or show. Here, it goes off, and before it comes up, 2 goals don enter. |

Re: Reps Move To End Dstv Monopoly by AZeD1(m): 9:57am On Oct 23, 2014 |
1) DSTV is not a monopoly 2) Forcing DSTV to bring their prices down will actually make DSTV a monopoly by pushing the likes of Startimes out of the market. |

Not as if DSTV is expensive. |
