Hey I don’t think that private TV will be present in mauritian life may be in 2 or 3 years or may more. but i think that some people should think about web tv, i.e people who has an internet access at home can watch a sort of tv on it with local production of course. i think that no special permit is required for this , CORRECT ME IF AM WRONG.

I too could not watch any of the new channels on myt for that 3 months trial.
As for the price u asked yashvin: canal+ only will cost around 500rs (vat incl.), while canal satellite will depend on the packages you will select, in fact canal+ forms part of canal satellite’s every package, but the one mentioned above is if u take ‘canal+ le bouquet’ option i fink, forgot a little here , u can get more info by calling 6021818.
As for mbc, it still monopolizes the tv sector, but is still crap, just ask some english football fans here who dont have canalsat or parabol and they will tell u… As for the movies..burk!!
The private tv stations would have done better if they had cut their prices to allow more ppl to get access to their services…

PS.Anyone knows forums or websites where i can download tiny toons comics full episodes?

My.T rocks with the new channels and could be compared to Canal Sat or Parabole . I really like watching those old serials and animated movies but My. T is not available at Fond du Sac. Anyone feeling to watch old movies and shows can go to, youtube.com/movies and youtube.com/shows Use a Proxy In Case It’s Not Allowed.

@Mike : True…
However, the movie channel do have a few nice movies (if you haven’t watched them some days earlier on the same channel of course)

Yashvin (author) said: I wonder if adding more useless digital channels will bring any changeâ€¦

Assuming they are choice/premium satellite channels with good content, I would be prepared to pay for them. At the moment the MBC is in a frame of mind that ALL it’s viewers want sports and all their energy goes into negotiations for rebroadcast of football matches. Let’s face it the movie channel has been disappointing in its selection.
