Hi benjamin I didnot buy Tata Sky,my relative had 2 connections in their house,now they no need one connection,so they gave me free of cost.I mean the stb,Remote,Dish everything.I just changed the connection to my name.That's all.I didnot use even a single rupee on it.Just paying for package alone.(South Starter Pack) I am still waiting for bigtv,till that i am using tatasky,after the bigtv launch i will check whether bigtv is better than tatasky,if not i will continue with Tatasky itself.
