My cable provider is offering a HD box! He said it costs 6k and he'll get it by 5th of this month and I'll have to pay 600 every month. He also promises that it will have 200+ channels and a lot of em will be HD (Which I'm pretty much sure is SD but better than Cable itself) Should I go for this? Anybody else got this offer?
Nope I am using Videocon HD for the past 3 years .. and never looked back .. 1200Rs. Per month though

I don't really wanna pay 1200 for Indian Channels! I barely watch the television anyway and I just want some English movie channels in HD

We might have the same thing :eek: But mine is charging me twice than yours?
Sorry for such a late rep. Bro the quality is 1080i not 1080p. Also, there are so many issues with it... Too many times it has stopped working. I won't recommend you going for such desi cable.

What is the price of Digital Set Top Box offer by Cable Walas?

Dear All,

Just wanted a heads up, what is the price of Digital Set Top Box being offered by Local Cable walas accross Karachi?

My cable wala is offering it for Rs 8000 / box which I think is a bit expensive whereas PEMRA says it should be around 5000 Rs.. What do you all thinks, is he scamming me? because the box has no brand on it.. Check the picture below

Is the current infrastructure of cable network capable of providing HD channels? They can't even provide all SD channels in clearly.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
