Digital Migration - Set Top Box Ownership - Time to move the debate forward!
Dear All, At Cofek, we find as (regrettably) misplaced the fact that people are re-opening the same old debate on digital migration merely because of the 3 media houses’ objections. Regardless of their somewhat valid grievances, we are on record saying they are fighting a lost battle. The Supreme Court has pronounced itself. It is end of debate on analogue switch-off. We need to move on – beyond the exchanges between CA/MOICT and the media houses. We need to listen to “Wanjiku”. We need to exploit the opportunities which migration brings with them. On set-top boxes, and if you thought South Africa is better on Digital Migration, then Kenya has no problems at all. A minister in South Africa has said no to STB’s with encryption! Read on: http://www.cofek.co.ke/index.php/14-news/957-if-you-thought-there-are-more-d... Kind regards David Kedode www.cofek.co.ke
and what about those with digital TV's which dont require a set top box, will they still have to buy that ntv et al set top box. i F NOT, WONT WE BE WHERE WE WERE ONE WEEK AGO... *Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up, It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a lion wakes up, it knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether you are a gazelle or a lion. When the sun comes up, you better start running. - In "The World is Flat" by Thomas L. Friedman.* On Wed, Feb 18, 2015 at 6:16 PM, Consumers Federation of Kenya (COFEK) via kictanet <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:
