Download "Mubdro" APK on your Android device. You will get all the channels you want. You can watch ChannelsTV, Algeecera, TVC and other cable news on Youtube.
Just downloaded it. Dstv premium is a total waste of resources though I rarely use it

Go buy yourselves a Xiaomi android TV box. Then download wss app. Connect the Hdm1 cable from your Android box to your flat screen, and you good to go. Look for a very good network internet provider like "may be" airtel (I no Dey naija sha..)
I love wss like die. It gives you options on picture quality on the channels. Just a simple click will do. Nice portable smart app.

the price of their decoder without dish is #12k with 2weeks of free watching,after that you can select the channels you like to watch and subscribers,like me I selected only 10 channels.
I really like that Cinemachi action & MBC. tstv really need our support by patronizing to flush out dstv and gotv.

Netflix, Youtube, apple music. The Mrs needs a lot of data for instagram and all. It is better to have an unlimited plan than a capped plan.
pls boss, which of the unlimited data are u subscribing?

Re: Multichoice Announces Price Slash On Dstv, Gotv Decoders by Sharmeenator(m):
I followed this thread from page 1, yet no one explain in concise terms what an IPTV is and how it works across all TVs and devices. Here I will explain to the best of my ability.

IPTV is not an app. Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) refers to applications that enable you watch contents streamed from the internet. Examples of IPTV apps are Netflix, Showmax, Mobdro TV, etc.

To switch to IPTV, you will need a Smart TV or an Android box; a device like decoder that can be connected to your non-smart tv. It has memory like phones and it works like an Android phone. You can download and install apps from Google play store in it.

There are tons of free and paid IPTV apps. You can download and install many of the FREE ones on android box unlike on Non-android Smart TV like Samsung appstore for Samsung Smart TVs.

Is it cheaper?
Cheap here is relative. I will use myself as an example. I have a Samsung smart tv, Spectranet router modem, netflix account and DSTV decoder. I do the family or Yanga plan depending on the month. I use Spectranet because it is fast in my area. I subscribe to the 10.2k plan monthly. I do Netflix some months and only watch between the hour of 1am to 8am because Spectranet data cap is unlimited between those hours. Cobranet, IPNX and co don't have coverage in my area so I can't do any fibre optic data subscription.

DSTV is cheaper for me and IPTV will cost way more to me if I were to switch. But for someone whose location has good fibre optic coverage and who's doing DSTV premium, switching to IPTV on android box or Android Smart TV and subscribing to a fibre optic plan below 15k will be cheaper.

If it's between 10 to 15k monthly, then no need because DSTV will eventually be cheaper with this their new prices.
But you also buy internet for your gadgets?

IPTV simply means watching TV over internet. You can get an Android TV box and connect it to your TV,and simply watch all the channels via internet. With that you can say bye bye to DSTV scamming. I use Glo network cos it's fast and efficient in my area, and I simply subscribe for N15,000 data which I never finish in any month and I have access to not only all the DSTV channels, including all their SuperSports channels and their other premiums channels.

Data is the new thing. Just find which network is fast and suitable in your location, and you will say good bye to DSTV.
You need the TV box even with a smart TV?

And you think an average Nigerian can afford to spend 10k on data monthly?
Bro... unlimited data for 10K monthly is actually a very sweet deal in this part of the wordl

I have not used DSTV in 16 month. I wish I can sell my DSTV Explorer. It is just occupying space. The only thing you can do with dstv is watch their mostly outdated TV shows.

My FibreOne Unlimited Internet subscription is just NGN 10,800. I use between 400gig and 700gig of data per month. It is data buffet.

If you know, you know.
But you have to pay for installation and all the first time yeah??

Just buy 1 terabyte for 100k annually, that will give u more than 80 gig if u devide it by 12,simply means u are getting 80gig for 8300 naira, its available on mtn, airtel and glo, then get urself a smart TV or android box, simple
Hmmmmm...smart

But I don't just trust MTN and co

That your 100K annually fit no last 3 months the way dem go take suck am

Other than that... this makes sense actually
Because some of us pay way over 100K for data in a year honestly

Where can i purchase the IPTV box?

This does not change the fact that in Australia there are 48 million kangaroos and in Uruguay there are 3,457,380 inhabitants. So if the kangaroos decide to invade Uruguay, each Uruguayan will have to fight 14 kangaroos.
As long Kangaroos can't use or handle Guns, case close!

I stay in Abuja, and their decoder is rampant around here.
I believe you can go to their websites and look for their branch distributors around your side

You need the TV box even with a smart TV?
It's optional. But the operating system of most smart TV might limit what you can do. Just like Apple store may not allow you to download some Apps esp. from third party platforms.

If your smart TV is already Android based, you really don't need an Android TV box. However bear in mind that pre-installed Android in most TV consumes so much data, and the user interface and experience is very poor.

With my experience with TV box, it's so smooth that I even bought a wireless mouse and wireless keyboard and turn the f**king TV to my personal computer.

It's like the pandora box of entertainment just opened up in my life...from Netflix, to YouTube, to Mubdro IPTV Channels, to any streaming websites to and Apps you can think off....the choice is unlimited.

And since DSTV stop playing foreign cool hip-hop jamz and blues, this just fit my life so perfectly because I hate the nonsense most Nigerian musicians are singing. If I want to watch Davido, I simply type in Davido and watch all his songs.., Likewise if I want R.Kelly or Michael Jackson....I just enter their names and and have it.

Basically, with TV box, via data...you own and choose what you want to watch. To me, this is really "consumer is the king" system.

The good thing is, if you miss a program, you can search for it and watch it at your own time. DSTV may never show you again a program once you missed it.
