Dstv No Longer Entertaining These Days : Personal Opinion by bigfizh(m): 5:53pm On Dec 08, 2019
Maybe it's just me, I find dstv channels boring these days, they keep repeating old movies
/ Shows over and over, and for the past few weeks I have had cause to turn off the decoder and watch movies I downloaded online or watch shows I saved on Explora months back, this is where I wish we had alternative cable TVs that can compete with DSTV.
I'm contemplating on reducing my subscription from premium to lower packages.
The management of DSTV should look into this urgently.

There are lots of channels you can choose from on the Premium package. Ever considered that?

This is very true! Can’t believe I’d subscribe and still be looking for movies to download online to watch

Even premium gets so boring! There is nothing worse than having about a hundred channels and none of them are interesting enough. I thought I was the only one getting bored with cable.

I had resorted to android box since, now I used to watch a lot of better channels.
HBO, Bein movies and more, the only challenge so far is a stable internet.
take EPL from Dstv, startimes will become their mate.

Football is the only reason I subscribe these days. Imagine when they mistakenly lose the right of EPL to another cable company. It go shock them.

This EPL right I guess it's the reason why they are lagging, and people still subscribe, if they were to lose it, they will be on their toes again, too bad we don't have a competitive cable TV at the moment to rival these guys

Star times is an alternative to multi choice. Multi choice have rules that guide them in airing movies. Don't expect them to air new movies when they haven't gotten the permission from the movie producers to do so.

we are not talking about new movies alone, we are talking about repetition of programmes.. maybe they need to learn from others, I watch Bein movies, Bein series channels..
Oga you go curse DSTV if watch those channels, the fact is Dstv current channels are not top notch.

It is same thing. Like I said earlier, they rarely show new programs because they are restricted from airing them. They would show new ones once in a while. Even the Bein movies you posted has some restrictions but you wouldn't see it because you haven't study them for long

I used Dstv for good 2 years, I started using andriod box since last year, baba them no be mate I swear...I repeat! remove EPL from DSTV... DSTV become shit. even the African Magic yoruba, you go fear with their nonsense movie repetition.
for Example with bein sports channels alone, you get to watch EPL, Carling cup, Laliga, Copa del rey, Serie A, italia cup, league 1, Germany league, NBA basketball, American NFL, it can never get boring.
Baba, I swear Dstv na nonsense.
