What the best DTH Satellite / TV service for expats?
Hello knowledgeable people...
I want to pick your brains for a moment if you have time... I want to get some sort of TV box thing and am confused about which will be the best offering and will have the most channels / best channels for English only speakers... I will want general entertainment channels and news etc. in English I noticed that tata Sky have the Star Channels that are good but toooo much advertising - 3 or 4 slots per 30 minute program which drives me mad... I guess if I get the skyplus box I can at least fast forward through these? Anybody know about Airtel or other offerings?  Your feedback / experience will be much appreciated  |

I have Airtel Digital, but Tata Sky is probably the best. |

Thats very useful to know thanks!
I guess the best thing about tata sky is tata sky plus so you can record all your favourite stuff and then fast forward through all the adverts... definitely worth it... |

The "Best" service arguably is "Airtel Digital" Dth.TATA SKY follows.
Best picture clarity is with Big DTH(but some issues with Set Top Boxes). You can research here: http://www.saveondish.com/forum |
