Tata or dishtv??i got the answer

I m using Dishtv from past 2 years. I dont hav tatasky at my hone but has xperienced it at my friend’s house. So let me try 2 compare both of them.


CHANNEL QUALITY


Channel quality of both dishtv and tatasky is far better than cable-wallas. If we compare Dish and tatasky then tatasky has a slight edge.


ECONOMIC


Dishtv is cheaper than tatasky and has better offers. Currently while tatasky is providing 3mnths free viewing(or 5 mnths 4 2nd/3rd tv), Dishtv provides 6 mnth free viewing on 1st connection and 1 year for 2nd connection.(both at  Rs.3990)


CHANNELS and  PACKAGES


While dishtv provides around 150 tv channel plus 20 radio channel, tatasky only has 100 channels(no audio channel). Recent decision of tatasky of dropping of 13 channels has been a disaster for customer. Dishtv has more choice and better packages but both in tts(tatasky) and dtv(dishtv) most customers will end up paying Rs.300(including taxes) per mnth


AFTER SALE SERVICE


tts provide better service than dtv, but the flip side is dtv’s service is improving while tts graph is going down


PAYMENT SYSTEM


dtv has more ways of paying ur subscription but tts billing system is convenient


ACTIVE SERVICE


one of the biggest advantage of dth is active srevices like program guide, online games, ACTIVE SPORTS(multiple camera angle, highlights, player’s statistics), Movie on Demand, NEWS ACTIVE, etc. both tts and dtv provide this service. I dont know why I like active services of dishtv more.


SOME OTHER USEFUL POINTS


movie on demand/showcase-ok ok.not very gud



active sportz*-nice feature on both dish nd sky



active games*-gud on dishtv.every month u get new games.dont kno bout tatasky



remote*-dishtv remote(zenega box) is better bcoz it is light and small



set top box*-new zenega box of dish r better in looks nd r smaller in size



channel


swapping*-in new zenega boxes of dish time taken 2 change channel is


equal 2 as that taken in tatasky’s digicom but in older boxes of dishtv


channel swapping takes little more time



channel list*-channels r arranged in a much better way in dishtv than tatasky



program


guide*-tatasky provides more detailed program guide but dishtv provides


it in provided vertically which is really convenient.moreover u can


watch channel while watching epg in dishtv



information bar*-i like the info bar of dishtv
