Rep Power: 2 | Although the sun dth is advertising as Rs. 999 for one year with set top box and free subscription, they are charging additional charge of Rs. 1000 for installation alone, which i feel is quite high. It means that it comes to Rs. 2000 for one year! |

It doesn't mean Rs 2000 for one year. You have to pay the installation charges only once. So, you should not say that it is Rs 2000 yearly. The yearly charges only come to Rs 999. | |

Rep Power: 1 | Hey Sumit! That was great. I think you should go into advertising and marketing. You will do great!. I agree that Tata Sky is better than Sun. Now, its also concentrating on expanding in south and is planning to add more channels as well. So I see it giving tough competition to Sun DTH in the future. |

| Amor vincit omnia | Sun direct was first launched in TN and was an instant success. It is claimed that they have more than 2 million subscribers. And using the MPEG-4 makes the service one of the best while i think tatasky is still with MPEG-2 transmission technique. |
