Hmm, the DD direct plus is the cheapest here!
Just rs. 2500 for the dish antenna and STB and u get 17 DD channels + 12 private free channels+ 8-9 radio stations. I dont know abt the service or reception though.
I case you want private pay channels as well, go for DISH TV . We will have to pay for STB, dish antenna and for the channels as well..., we get a lot of channels , as much as 125 channels.
There was already a discussion on this topic, but i couldn't find it, mayabe i dint search with the right keywords.

DD Direct Plus is as the name sugests frm Prasar Bharti (DD) and its package is dominated by DD channels and has some free to air channels and radio. For this all u need to get is a Set Top Box and a DTH antenna from anywhere u want to and enjoy it. (Its a free service)
Dish TV is frm Zee and has got almost all channels available. Its like u have to pay fr wat u want to see and ur monthly bill depends on that. Its min is something Rs 125 and will go on increasing as u add more channels in ur boquet. last time i had enquired it had an offer running where u had to pay Rs 12000 one time fr installation, membership, set top box, anntenna and all channels fr 2 years after which u pay per channel.

Just forgot to add that DishTV or any other DTH providers Set top box and antenna will work for DD Direct plus, but not vice versa

Yes please name the MAG as its a financial mag it has nothing to do with Digit. As since we all freely name Chip(its biggest competitor) now and then.
Also give us some details abt the article.

Do you like this CAS thing?klinux said:
It sucks , IMO
I can see only the doordarshan and the trash of free to air channels.
Only discovery travel and living, NDTV 24X7, NDTV profit, BBC, and very few others is good. MTV was free and even that is cr@ped now...
I dont know why we have to suffer, when other enjoy pay channels....

the dish tv package for the time being is too costly to operate in my city. that too without any channels of start tv group as star has not yet linked its channels.
only espn and star sports are available on dish tv.
there is also problem with sony group too.
if you plan to use all the channels and then you may end up paying around 650 -700 rupees per months.
and right now there no stbs with multi card options so a wait is worth till we get more players and more mature market.
till then local cable wallah with 230 bucks rental and 65 channels almost all worthy channels are in list and plus many more local movie channels.

I've occasionally come across questions similar to this one. For God's sake, this is a free country, isn't it ? I know this is a proprietary moderated forum, but I sure hope such questions arose out of over-timidity and not because some past posters were intimidated from ever mentioning any other magazine.nikhil said:
I believe the mods and admins should be broadminded enough to allow references to any other mag, including direct competitors, so long as the reference is relevant.
As it happens, someone brought in a Dish TV system for testing yesterday. He got permission from the dealer to let me test it so that he can make up his mind about buying it. I'll post the results after I've had a chance to test it.
