I still insist that the ISPs in Nigeria move with local trend and you can't blame them for it. But soon enough, everyone is going to come up with a Netflix bundle eventually. All it takes is for one person to start it. Accept it or not, this is the beginning of the end of DSTVs stranglehold on Nigerians. The availability of Netflix bundle means more or almost unlimited internet, then creative people now see that like me, they do not need DSTV full bouquet to watch football matches. They find out they can stream it online at a partially good quality etc. Tell me, what is wort watching on DSTV aside from these football competitions? DSTV is just super dry and yet they charge 16,500 premium PVR. We should not expect that because Netflix is now streaming in Nigeria, everything will fall in place in 48 hours. It'll take some time for these ISPs to adjust. Slowly but surely. I remember about 16 years ago, I was using telephone line to connect to the internet and cyber cafes were using VSAT (DOPC) at the time and i needed about 512/256 KBps bandwidth with contention ratio of about 1:3. If i'm not mistaken, i got a quote of about 500k per month. Fast forward till today, I pay the same 500k for about 40Mpbs. Slowly but surely! 1 Like |

To save your data. Netflix was made not for the African market where data cost an arm and leg unlike the American Or European markets where speed is what matters. There if you overshoot your monthly data cap, you are not disconnected but rather get your speed throttled from 100mb/s to like 50mb/s lol Naija we de struggle for 3mb/s and dat is after dem tif your data and credit. nairaman66: 1 Like |

DanjaNinja:Nice and enlightening analysis. But I think I've heard of T-MOBILE in the U.S. having unlimited plans at around $100 per month. Can't we have something that good? |

Re: Netflix Is A Waste Of Money? by Nobody: 8:33am On Jan 11, 2016 |
unless a telecoms company is prepared to offer unlimited broadband for a reasonable price i don't think the average Nigerian can afford to subscribe to and get the best out of Netflix for now. Internet connections are stupidly expensive in Nigeria and something needs to be done about it. It costs on average £10 a month for unlimited broadband in the UK plus phone line rental costs. |
