@Vadirocks anna though we have had long discussions on this topic but just wanted to know ur view as to how Tata Play is able to provide various genre packs at Re. 1 under jingalala offers? Does it cause any loss of revenue to them as in records they will have to show how many subscribers opted for such packs and show where they absorbed all the discounts while paying broadcasters full 80% share of original channel price.

Private DTH needs to sue TRAI and make carriage fee mandatory for Doordarshan channels.

Those using smart/android set too boxes of different operators please try to restart ur box atleast twice in a day (morning time and before sleep) as it is quite common that due to excess load of internal processor bcoz of various apps running in background and other functions/activities ongoing in the box there r issues of hanging / slowing down of command processing or some others errors which may be faced sometimes.

No need to switch on / off from mains as within settings menu on box there is option to restart the box.

Even SD /HD box users should restart the box from mains atleast once every day to avoid facing issues while using their box

Or just keep off (power off) , when not in use , you can save some electricity as well.

Also most of the users not reading messages. Still it showing in the centre screen. More pending messages slow down the box performance.

Not really buddy. Mailer messages will cause very minute burden on the RAM / internal app system. Also these r few in number as older ones get auto deleted in 24 or 48 hours

Being DTH subscribers do u all miss all the various free local movie, music, infotainment, GEC service channels which Cable TV/MSO platforms provide.

I definitely feel that DTH operators should add such Free Service Channels, if Cable TV Operators can provide these and still have a financially viable business model so DTH operators can surely implement the same in a more bigger , better and effective manner considering that their ARPU / Revenues r lot higher than Cable TV/ MSO platforms

Next quarter will be far worse. NTO 2.0 is much worser than NTO.
