There's always one or two in a crowd.
Still, if you already have broadband and aren't a heavy user of bandwidth I can see how you could be pleased with the bang for the buck, especially if you didn't have a recent lifetime sub go poof which is not the case in a refund for prepaid service.
But if you had to sub to broadband to get it, or my case have to sub to Digital tier cable TV just so they would allow me to purchase increased bandwidth to accommodate it, then that's a whopping reason for resentment. An extra $50 or so a month just for the connection and then to pay another $15 for Christian programming that should by and large be subscription free by it's very nature. And at that I don't think it's the ministries who are getting paid, as they wouldn't need to make so many appeals for viewer contributions if they were, it's just the content carrier.
Really, if you couldn't go FTA or broadband, as described, is an issue then Direct TV has a good lineup for a lot less money in the end. But I think some folks are equally ticked at Dish for not offering more of the SA programming having been convinced to take their Family Pak or higher and finding it doesn't match up as well. Some folks are now probably stuck in a Dish commitment and hating it too.
I guess to each their own. But many of us still have to wonder how long the SA IPTV model can survive after losing a sizable chunk of it's subscribers the way it did and with expected lackluster results in new subs to replace some of them. Of course being a private company we may never know how bleak things may be until someone reports "Service unavailable. Please contact your service provider" is showing on their screen.
