| Platinum Member | Finally gonna get a dth soon... and i'm now just so much more confused than the days that we just had tatasky n dishTV... tata sky was the clear winner... 1) i want a quality picture n sound no doubt (thats why no dish tv), 2) language selection feature to view programs in their originality. 3) special features for tennis matches?? (i don't know whether dth provide anything special for tennis, they're all mad about cricket like 90% of us, so can't blame them. personally, i hate cricket. 4) want all the western channels along with the news and those hindi soap channels (a wide range of audience at my home whats the difference between the prices? i find tata sky's pricing to be confusing nowadays. 5) if i get another stb for my tv tuner card, which service will be cheaper? So please will you help me out... i cant decide upon anything. n please do not suggest bigTV to me...heard about their 'BIG' bigTV logo ![]() i hate reliance just as i do samsung.

| See, you wont be able to fulfill all your choices of channels with any DTH. even if you dont want you will have to pay for some of the south indian channels etc ... i will give you one simple answer on - taka sky or airtel 1) just tell me how much are you willing to pay monthly? about 400 is ok with you? 2) are you ready to pay for 1 year's subscription at a go? |

| Go for Airtel Platinum(6 months free ultra pack worth rs.400 pm for rs.3500) - or Gold(3 months free ultra pack worth rs.400 pm for rs.2500) subscriptions according to your convenience. these packages are inclusive of installation charges. both these offers the Ultra pack - i.e all the channels. after the initial subscription period - this Ultra pack will cost you rs.400 per month. check here : Digital TV from Airtel and Digital TV from Airtel or if you are willing to pay for 1 year -> you can also opt for tata sky annual mega pack -> 170 channels i.e. all channels available with tata sky -> rs. 5000 per year. you can also choose individual packages of tata sky according to your need - but trust me it will casue you more problems in long run - the package prices are incresed periodically, some channels are extraced from a package and add up to form a new package and this causes a lot of headache. check here .. : Tata Sky’s New DTH Packages With More DTH Paid Channels, Sports Platinum Pack, Sports Gold pack, South Value Pack, Educational Gold Pack and more tata sky installation charges will be additional. rs.1499 i think |
