Thread: DiskTV To get more channels

Here is a good news.

In a recent interview DishTV CEO told that they had made a huge loss and they are looking forward to get more good services out as soon as possible. In these good services they would also include a new package in which there would be all new channels and he also told that they would also take the total number of channels above 200 very soon. I am sure that we would see more and more good services from them very soon.

Well if they want to survive after such a big loss then they would have to offer more and more better services to there customers otherwise there is no chance that they would survuce for a long time.

this is something really good... it would be nice if they are going to add more channels to there present channel list.... i am sure that this would attract more customers...

Tanu: Hi, just one small question. You have been talking about carriage cost
association, you know, with the new broadcasting. Now, you all are a
broadcaster and a distributor, we are seeing as to how more digitalization
carriage costs for all broadcasters should actually go down and because of the
digital platform for delivery of channels, why, I probably am missing out on
something but why should a broadcaster pay Dish or for that matter even Tata
Sky carriage costs.
Subhash: Because today they are launching new channels, and they need exposure to their
programming.
Tanu: Right.
Subhash: And my customer as a distributor, as a Dish TV, my customer has not really
sampled their channels because it is new, so he is not demanding from me that
channel so I am going to cost something to carry your channel. There is a cost
because I have transponder capacity blocked by that, I have to perform the
broadcast operation and other processes for showing their channel to the viewer
and so I am just asking them to pay my cost if they want their channel to be
carried. If you say that there is no need to carry, then good luck, no need to
carry, then they would not get advertising revenue from the advertisers because
they are missing 2.7 million subscribers on Dish TV.

Now watch B4U music at channel no 1580

I wish they bring on NDTV Imagine instead.

Dish tv has indeed taken a back seat ever since tata sky came into being with their aggressive marketing and advertising. Tata sky also had more variety of channels than dish tv and sometimes looks cheaper too.
