Remove Sony SAB and bring back VH1

Now that it is clearly seen that Sony SAB/MAX telecasts the same match whereas MAX broadcasts the English commentary and SAB broadcasts the Hindi commentary even when two matches are taking place on one day during the Super 8 stage of the ICC World Cup, there is no point in keeping SAB and it is best if Dialog TV brings back VH1 back to their lineup. SAB served its purpose during the Group stage when they showed two different matches on SAB and MAX with English commentary on a particular day except when India was playing.

We are unable to confirm whether Sony PIX is broadcasting the other match in English in the event two matches are taking place on the same day during the Super 8 stage. Anyone who has access to Sony PIX channel hopefully will confirm.

We were under the impression that SAB will show the other match so since this is not the case it is now up to Dialog TV to remove the channel and reintroduce VH1 once again. If Dialog TV is to continue broadcasting Sony SAB we suggest that they do so once the third transponder is activated. However we do not see the need for Sony SAB on Dialog TV unless they are planning to introduce Dialog TV to the Indian market or to Indians living in other countries in this region.

SAB is a useless channel. I don't mind they drop it permanently. They had done it to Raj, Zoom, Goal and why not do the same for SAB and bring VH1 back.

Further, I very much dissapointed with DTV because they don't understand the tastes of viewers, they don't respects viewers and they don't care about subscriber unite. I'm waiting till another cable operator to come into the market and give them a good competition. These Dialog big headed people think that we always have to dance their tune.

DTV needs to understand that most of their customers hate the Hindi channels with a passion (from what i gathered. Dropping of VH1 in favour of SAB and SET proves their ignorance. It was the only 'English' channel in the 23-33 range and one of the only channels English music lovers could watch. Granted it was the Indian feed but it was much more tolerable than MTV or any other crap. IMO they should have dropped MTV during the World Cup or used up some reserved space.

So what they can do at least now is to bring back VH1 (possibly the Asian feed, heh a guy can dream now can't he ?) since the Group matches are over. Oh and F**K India !
