I have dumped DSTV completely since May when they increased Compact subscription to N10,500.

Funny enough, even my children who spent the most time on DSTV watching cartoons have moved on. They are content watching those same cartoons, even recent and current episodes on YouTube.

It's been 6 months now and they have never complained.

Smart TV, IPTV and Set top boxes are king now. I plan to get a Mi Box before the end of the year.

DSTV is gone for good for us. They have been calling me to subscribe for 1 month and get another month free...the best I do is just answer their calls and after that, ignore them 😆😆😆

We offer best IPTV services in NIGERIA

The only solution to dstv wahala is cheap data price.

But we have had terrible visionless ediots handling the communication ministry (including the present ediot) for so long, that internet data is still a luxury for average Nigerians in 2023.


If there is enough data, dstv will beg people to subscribe and making promo after promo to reduce their price.

This is the only solution to break the monopoly power . Data is not supposed to be as cost as this..

It is an app.... but you will need a subscription for the IPTV, the app is just a medium to have an access to the IPTV services

This is what you get when there are little or no viable alternatives to DSTV/GoTV.

***
Who are the DSTV competitors in the industry? There are Startimes, MyTV, TSTV etc. (that's what I meant by "little or no viable alternatives" ).

Of course you have Options to download or stream Internet Contents, go to viewing centers, use FTA, or even to abandon your DSTV Decoder & stop watching TV.
There's an alternative.

CyberStick today announced the launch of the localized version of its streaming service in one of Africa’s biggest markets: Nigeria. Just as it did in their launch party 🎉 in Lekki some days back, the tech giant is attempting to boost its subscriber push in new markets like Africa by increasing its investment in local production, unveiling slates of localized originals and introducing discounted offerings to customers.

CyberStick launched in Africa in 2010 as part of its global push across more than 200 countries worldwide, bringing some serious competition to Netflix’s global plan launched that same year.

The company plans to launch in other markets like South Africa. In a TikTok video by its official account cyberstick, the company said that customers in Nigeria can stream more original TV shows and movies within its ecosystem as long as your have a HDMI port on your TV.”

According to its website, the service will cost ₦39,500, there are no trial period, no subscription and no monthly payment. Thus, for the first time, users in Nigeria will be able to watch Netflix, YouTube, Hulu and many more.

CyberStick and other streaming services such as Netflix, Disney+, Canal+ and Showmax are vying for Africa’s 2026-projected 15 million video-on-demand subscribers. According to Digital TV Research, an analytics firm, CyberStick has sold over 600,000 customers in Africa and might add 1.5 million new subscribers compared to Netflix’s 3 million subscribers in the next four years.

To gain more market share amid a streaming war for African content and eyeballs, CyberStick has been collaborating with filmmakers and content creators in Nigeria regarding the production of original and licensed content. The past couple of months has seen the service make strategic moves, such as closing theatrical outlet agreements with Anthill Studios, Inkblot Productions and Evoke Studios, hiring Insight Publicis as its creative agency.

Well it's not yet an alternative, until it is deployed and giving DSTV serious competition.
Remember how TSTV came up with so much hype but fizzled out at the end.
