Also maybe we can do a research here,

Does the Startimes STB receive signet channels?
Does the GoTV STB receive signet channels?
I know that the Government STB recieves both STV and GOTV save for the scrambling issue.
The digital TV is equivalent to the govt recommended STB

So the last question is this, if KTN,NTV and Citizen were to invest in the transmission equipment, what would stop the current STB from receiving their signal?

I remember GoTV asking for a one time "administration fee" of about 1,500 or something close for them to allow you to watch FTA channels even when your subscription is expired. Did this change?

@James - the pay TV license is different from the digital distribution licence - thats why DSTV can prevent you if you don't pay but GoTV cannot prevent you from the FTA channels if you don't pay, yet technically the company is one

Can someone explain to me why DSTV prevents you from watching local channels when you don't pay your subscription. It seems unfair to me as they are basically asking you to pay for something that's free.

How long do you think they can last not airing any Adverts before companies
decide to ship out and look for alternatives.

Shadrack, we do respect your opinion, but you really need to read about the whole saga in order to be able to even 'think' about anything related to it:-)

What does the sale of the STBs got to do with in in your opinion?
Didn't the Cartel already know that CCK (CA) licensed about 60 distributors for the STBs (non-subscription) ?

Me thinks the problem has to do with the sale of setboxes with monthly subscription to views who only interest is the free-to-air channels.

Whats copyright infringement/plagiarism?

How has DSTV satellite broadcasting been delivering KTN,NTV and Citizen to their viewers in remote areas, inclusive of neighboring countries, prior to all this problems beginning, was it illegal?
