From my reading of the script, it appears the 3 media houses think that they will force us to buy their own set top boxes in addition to the ones we already have. In other words they want to make money at our expense. Why can't they wake up to realisation that virtually all Kenyans by now have the boxes, and no one is ready to buy a second one - they are not very appealing in any case.

If the must carry means that the signal distributors must carry the local free to air signals the please draw for me the business model for BSD as I'm sure they aren't charities and have bills to pay. Does it also mean that they're obligated to carry ALL FTA?

my take is that why is cak or the 3 media not promoting uptake of digital tvs?those with inbuilt tuners,they should be zero rated or something Tanzania gave out the boxes for free, the 3 media houses want a piece of the set box purchases.if china sets its deadline to 2018 why is Kenya in a rush?

Its up to them to come up with innovative ways to make money, that's why some have two options a pay tv box and a free to air box - and even some of the ones that are completely free for now, have added a ka smart card on their boxes for scaling options in the future.

I think the deadlines were set for the whole WORLD to migrate to the digital platform, and also to avail the same resources to the upcoming faster mobile network. I don't think kenya is in a rush, we are just trying to keep to the deadlines.
