haha

@tkb417, Who says ain't serious? I am ooh!  'cos I assumed it was UniGaz.     

@topic;
Let's see how this will end, abi?
The story continues. . .

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=294608.msg4387159#msg4387159 date=1250758757]United without Ronaldo/Tevez trounced Aersenal 4-0 some seasons ago.
The team is skint as we speak because VDS and Rio/Vida are absent.[/quote]All this one na story. Really, this is a new season, though still early days.
Notwithstanding, it's unbelievable you lost to Burnley with all the forming and mouth you guys make.

VDS? Thought you guys said you can cope without VDS and that Foster can step up to the plate, No?

tkb417:
haha
how do u get prize without a degree

I got a prize in swimming. Does that mean I also got a degree in it?

tkb417:
well
Hitv dont have dual decoders and of course that will evolve overtime

when DSTV came, it took them years b4 they brought the dual decoder thing and this was years after we've been burdened with high monthly subscription charges

as per your other points about how they came about the 20k, i dunno and only Hitv can provide answers to that.
but i maintain that Hitv can increase thier subscrition charges if they know they have what you want and no one else will offer it

Football

Certainly they can increase their subscription charges but to what amount? That remains the questions.
However, I see your point and that is their ONLY weapon.
Good Luck to them.

as jamaicans say- Wickiiid- ! ^^^

Nigeriaaaaaaaaa

BinghiNya:
United > Ronaldo plus Tevez. Tevez and Ronaldo both played against barca and we were overran. If the midfield is settled United will roast any team. PS: United scored 2wice against a "super" Chelsea team without Ronaldo or Tevez. United will win the league again.

A match you eventually lost?

tkb417:
haha got a prize for studying econs in the UNI

Glad you confessed you got a prize and NOT a degree. 

tkb417:
you surely know about the law of demand and supply but not how to apply it. . .
the active subscribers on Hitv is about 300,000. This means those subscribing monthly

there are those who pay this month and wont pay for 2 months, the category of these group gives about 250,000 and we have those who can afford to pay but are on another platform= roughly 500,000 people

in defining the potential mkts, i can safely say anybody that earns more than a 100,000 per month can afford to pay Hitv subscription per month( its just an assumption) andif we look at these sets of people, they are more than 10million in Nigeria

what does that tell you Mr FBS? that the potential demand is about 10million while the real demand is just about 400k average!!

its simple, the potential demand is there for Hitv to tap into

and when you talk of switching, you only switch when you have a close substitute with almost the same cost
is DSTV 6k? do you get the football games on DSTV?
can you use DSTV without Hitv for your viewing center biz?

the answers are NO!
DSTV is not a close substitute and even if u wanna switch, the cost is high!

so it brings you back to point zero
pay the required sum or close the biz!!

The risk of not doing well in the biz is the inability to get urself on the Hitv platform. U cant do a viewing center biz at tht cost without HITV
very simple my bro

Apparently, you did not read my earlier questions  because if you did, you will notice that you only provided answers to some of them.
Not withstanding, your analysis is flawed for one simple reason. You cannot say because there is a potential demand of 10 million, therefore you raise the price.
You have clearly forgotten that even out of the average you mentioned, how many of those are VCs?
You cannot as a provider say because VC are making money off you, you then decide to increase the subcription fee to any level without factoring in items earlier mentioned. What about your existing customers?
My main question however, is, how did they arrive at this 20k and how will they enforce it even if at the time of purchase of the package the purpose (home use or VC) is stipulated.
If other "alternatives" cost much more then the VCs have no other option than to pay up but If I understand correctly, HiTV does not offer dual decoders?

PS: I have never used either and that was why I asked those questions. 

Baba mo gbe O ga. Modupe Ore Ofe ati Alaafia!.

BinghiNya:
United lost and so what?
Did Barcelona win their first match of the season after selling dinho and deco. Why didn"t arsenal or chelsea win the last 2 season's respectively after impressive starts. United will bounce back. Note: Giggs and anderson won't function together in the midfield.

Arsenal and Wigan will feel the backlash.

Auntie please tell us a story.

tkb417:
if you did economics or you bizniz, you will know Hitv shouldnt base their pricing on how much margin he expects the re-seller to make from it.
They will look at their own cost and other SGAs , OPEX and other allied costs to arrive a t a competitive pricing

what the resellers will do is to go back and change thier own pricing based on the new costs involved in the acquisition and the maintenance of the biz

Hitv is not liable for your own costs
how hard is this?
na wa

Boy, fear catch me o? 
This shows that you NEVER studied ecomomics.
There is demand and supply? If the demand is not there or low  due to high price what do you think will happen?
People will either switch to other options or try to look for ways of NOT paying. Either way, it is HiTV that will end up with zero profit.
Before you place your goods on the market YOU MUST certainly factor in how much the consumer will pay.

What is hard for you to understand abi na the defeat of yesterday dey worry you and you obviously missed this

One thing for sure though, is that they MUST pay more than a regular home user.

FYI, I've never used either and was only expressing my view.

1. How much do these VCs make in a month?
2. How was this 20k sum arrived at?
3. Major factors like electricity, enforcement of this "rule" etc should be factored in by HiTV
4. How large is their customer base?
5. Does DSTV charge extra from VCs?


One thing for sure though, is that they MUST pay more than a regular home user.
My 0.2 kobo.  

And how did I manage to miss this epic tie?
What? Burnley beat MU? Even Carrick couldn't convert a penalty?

Can anyone suggest a song (in spanish) that goes with such spectacular and fully deserved victory?

@Dayok,
Update your sig abeg. Remove the U-19 unless you to add the word "former"?

Great.

This thread no even pass page 1?

Sha Congrats to The Lillypools. Back to winning ways eh?

You Arses can be very arrogant sometimes.
Well, na internet forum sha. . .It's a free-to-air (abi na free for all) medium!

biina:
Nice game against Barcelona in which Citeh were on the back foot for most of the game. They still need one central defender.
Hughes should just forget about Lescott. 22M can get you some defenders of much better quality than lescott from outside the premiership.

The buildup to that goal is a joy to watch. Citeh players finally getting to know each other?

Citeh!!!

And how did I manage to miss this epic tie?
What? Burnley beat Manure? Even Carrick couldn't convert a penalty?

Can anyone suggest a song (in spanish) that goes with such a spectacular and fully deserved victory?  

You folks still on this topic?

If only NTA can upgrade their black and white broadcasting equipment
I watched Pillars Vs Portsmouth on Ait and it was very clear and colourful
atleast you know who the referee, Strikers and goalkeepes are!

Up Kwara United

Got me rolling on this one. Classic.

BD -

wonder if you were born when the Chavz were 50yrs without a plate medal let alone Trophy!

And since then we've been riding high . What can you say about yourself? Yeah you right, NOTHING!

kaydee:
U have a serious case of "Senile Dementia", I can remember telling U to go steal a brain, Even murder cases and armed robbery cases stay years in court for lack of concrete evidence.Start watching Crime TV to know U can be punished for crimes committed as far as 30years back.Even God chill years before punishing so what's the big deal bout the 2years

Must i break ur skull to sink it in that The Pastor was aware of the penalty before re-marrying?It's the price fool, It's just like a foul in the box, Geddit?I know U can't get anything in there because it is a "Tabula rasa", He saw it coming,Pastors want to divorce their wives and re-marry citing him as example.

Finally,U found another numskull like you,i suggest U both borrow a brain and share it,

This is beyond my understanding. How can grown-ups (I assume you are one) think this way?
I have nothing against RCCG. Blimey, I used to go there back in Nigeria and have good friends there up till now. The issue at hand (for me as a person) is not about the church per say, my question remains why the wait for 2 years. Certainly the church knew about this.
Why can't the pastor remarry or is the pastor a celebate? Who are we to judge?

What prove have you to show that he knew about this "rule" and if he did, why did the church wait that long?

All the similarities you are trying to bring in are off target.
- Your friend's father married two wives (polygamy)- whereas the pastor has only one (remarried)
- Your friend cheated in 100 level but got caught 4 years later- whereas the pastor got married in the church, officiated and blessed by the church. Never mind the fact that he remained a pastor in the church for 2 years afterwards.
- Now you say CrimeTV is the next thing. - Did the pastor commit any crime?

Sorry, I referred you to a doctor. . .my bad 'cos yours is a lost case.

Did I call you a brainless cow? No you are not. Even a cow is wiser than you are. You should be competing with a dead goldfish and FYI They only remember things for 3 seconds and have basic primal instincts.

You peeps are right on this one.

But still very early in the season however, it's a good thing to set a positive tone.

BinghiNya:
chelsea will never win the epl with their old team. Your nemesis is on saturday.

Let me guess, you must be a manure fan boy? 
Nemesis ko, synthesis ni. rubbish. Just open mouth yarn dust. Typical of you folks. 

And what will you do if we win?

kaydee:
Check the meaning of Ignoranus, that shud be your surname, It's obvious U're blinded by sentiment.I know people who cheated in 100level or used fake documents during their admission process and they had to chill till they finish their project before dealing with them.Tell me the professors are jealous of them too,

What's so hard for you to understand here Is ur skull that empty?Even the Pastor himself accepted it in good fate and U're here taking Panadol for someone's headache.Now who types without thinking,  Go get a brain,if U can't afford one,steal one because U might die with that empty skull, A typical M.U.M.U like you shud pay before posting here,

Then Ignoramus in that case is your first, middle and surname put together because I'm yet to see someone as stupid as you are.
Read my very first post: I said, there is more to this than we already know but for you to come out and say he should resign ONLY because he is a black man and thereafter giving your friend's father as example? wow! 

Plus where in my post did you see "jealous"? I said it that you are plain blind.

How can you compare
- marrying two wives (as in your friend's fathers case) to a pastor remarrying (after his wife left 10 years ago to remarry) but only got the sack after two years of "breaking" a certain rule?

- And now you are using those who cheated in 100 level as an example?  

Mehnnn some people sef. Boy go and see a doctor- any doctor 'cos I don't know which one to recommend.
Besides, how does that fit in? Did the pastor cheat?  

Maybe I sholuld break it down for you. A church is not an ordinary setup (such as school etc). It is a place of worship and where morality is next to spirituality (some may even argue that Morality is spirituality in action). If he broke this rule, why wait for 2 years to act?

You have failed to answer that particular question.  

PS: This is nothing but abuse of internet. Even brainless cows like you, go want post. O ma se o.

She is definetly build like a man no doubt,I just hope that she is a woman.She is only 18,and last year broke world junior records for 800m and 1500m.She could dominate for a long time.Like Usain Bolt,I think she is special.

Oh yes she is.

What do these folks use the borrowed money for?

A revamped XP in a Vista shell with more bells and whistles and a better user interface eh?

MrCrackles:
Thanks a lot dude. . . .

No biggie.
The thing is, if you win fair and square then it's all good. For me stats or history don't mean nada. A game of football is decided in 90+ mins. If you win then you the boss. That's how it goes.

Winners are never to be criticized.

When I saw her/him . . .I was like wtf!
