DTH Subscriber's Calculation Method

[TR Vishnu]

Hi Brothers,
I have doubt.How dth companies calculate their customers?Is it on the basis of a single connection or the family members of a single connection ? I have this doubt because of the following reason.

In 2007 when I am buying dish tv I got an advertisment of dish tv that they have 20 lakh customers with * mark on the above of 20 lakh and in the last of ad they written that '*NB:Calculation of customers on the assumption that in each family of dishtv have 5 members.

Is dish tv still calculating customers on this base?Is all other dth are adopt this method for customer calculation?

Please reply member Brothers I think it will be helpful to other member Brothers also.

Thank You.
