For more than 2 years I have been consistently subscribing to DSTV, from last year march till last month, I was on price lock on 9k for compact. No doubt I was actually enjoying dstv especially premier league football.

So my subscription expired last week and I checked the new price for compact, it was 15k+. Geskiya I said I can't be subscribing again. The money is too much. Thanks almost 180k per year.

So yesterday, I was at home, was now playing around with my TV apps, what I saw really amazed me.

There are plenty apps that shows children movies, another ones shows action films, though old, but they are interesting. There is an afroland TV that shows Nigerian movies. This afroland shows live France 24 news. There is Plex TV that shows live channels and still have movies too.

Then I discovered that Al Jazeera, channels TV and some other news channels shows live on YouTube. Worst of it all is that, on YouTube there are some personal channels that have full videos on movies both foreign and locals, with very recent cartoons.

Then I said let me test the cast option. Lo and behold, when man city match started, I used a stream app to watch football on my phone then I now casted it to TV. O boy, everything clear.

I watched Man city, Tottenham and Chelsea matches.

When I was leaving the house after Chelsea match, I checked my data, despite connecting it to my TV since morning, I didn't blow up to 4g.

So if I used that my 9k I was using to subscribe to DSTV compact and buy Airtel 22g for 5k, I will be on unlimited streaming till month end.

Watch at you own space.

In addition, some of these documentaries that is been shown on nat geographic gold and wild, discovery channel, investigation ID, there episodes are there on YouTube. All you need is to search for it.

My brothers and sisters....

Bye bye to DSTV and other paid TV.


In addition, there is a radio app on the smart TV that brings to you plenty radio channels both home and abroad. What I haven't confirmed is if it's live or pre recorded.
Thank God for smartphone and YouTube, I watch anything Any movie I want on YouTube and I observe data is well optimized, just have battery and data you are good to be entertained , what is DStv nonsense .

You just dey discover say it saves cost to stream?

I have successfully stopped subscribing on GoTV since 6-7years now. Why did I stop?
I remember I subscribed that month and discovered that the channels didn't fully load. I called their contact center and I was told they have removed the channels.

The lady that picked the call sounded so nonchalant, and that the remover is their choice and no need to inform the customer. I stopped subscribing the next month. They have called me tire since then, offered me incentives and inducements, I haven't changed my decision.

Monthly, I simply activate MTN's 200GB on my 5G router and enjoy movies of choice, YouTube, football etc.

I like the be in control and doing streaming gives me control cuz I have not subscription running whether I watch or not. I can also control my data usage. Some months, nah 110GB I use, some 150GB and I just roll over the data.


Since I saw the increase in bouquet I just dey laugh 😄


How much the Unlimited Monthly Data You buy?

bros it is more expensive to stream. Especially if you are addicted like watching 4k content like me. I dont enjoy a movie that lacks high definition picture quality. To me streaming is more expensive. The only advantage I have is on streaming is you have unlimited contents. You decide what to watch unlike the boring cables.



It is not expensive. It is you that made it expensive for you


The same numbers of channels on dstv that cost 15k or substituted with other more interesting channels , viewed like somebody with work ,with kids outside watching TV, to do ....not the one somebody here says he starts from 5:30 to 12 midnight everyday

I was shocked to see that I used 4gb to stream on my TV from morning till after Chelsea match yesterday.

As someone that goes to work and only watch TV during the evening hours, 10gb is far far enough for me for the month. So 20gb of 5k will serve two months.

Are you sure?

From what you Wrote...You Used 4gb for just 1 Day.
That Means You will use up the 20gb in just 5 days of FULL-DAY TV watching

you still have 25 days to get a full Month


I think you will Actually Need 4gb x 30 days = 120g of Data for a full Month.
achievable mostly by an unlimited Data Plan that could be more costly than some DSTV packages

for those on very low DSTV packages like 5k and below....Streaming Will definitely look to expensive

It's another form of Kodi.

https://kodi.tv/download/

There're different forms of ipTV.
It's not just common in NIgeria because of unlimited data.
Which build are you currently using?

That solar of a thing is already happening. If not for the initial cost of solar, who go sey talk about nepa. Go to asaba now, almost all the average household have solar panel installed.

Even Flexible Solar Films have Arrived to replace Solar Panel.
NEPA will be History in the next 10 Years

Leave them to keep speak from ignorance. Dstv is way better for people with family.

They Are Talking About Enjoying Unlimited Content WHILE i thought they were fighting DSTV about trying to cut the Cost of TV Monthly
These TV solutions (IPTV, Streaming) are all going to make you spend A LOT more on TV Monthly
