DsTv Now – Digital Satellite Television

We often get into a situation when it is the time of our favorite show to be air on TV. But we are away from our home. As a cricket enthusiastic, I often go through this situation when there is a match and I am travelling.

For such situations, there comes satellite services that provides live streaming and TV shows to the users wherever they want. It means that you can access live shows and live streaming of content on your phone, tablet or your PC/Laptop.

DsTv Now, short for Digital Satellite Television is no different. It gives you the choice to watch favorite TV shows on the go using your internet.

Availability:

DsTv Now is based in Africa but offers its services in many other countries.

The countries include South Africa, Namibia and Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Angola, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Uganda, Mauritius, Mozambique, Malawi, Tanzania, Lesotho, Ethiopia, the Republic of the Congo, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Gabon, Swaziland and Botswana.

You maybe noticing that the countries does not include Europe countries US, UK, Spain, Canada or Australia.

You may access DsTv in these countires by using VPN but I will not recommend it.

Do You Really Need This?

I know you might be thinking that who needs such service or app when we already have high speed internet?

Well you are wrong if you think so. Because not every content is available on the internet on the go. For an instance, an HD movie is available on the internet after many weeks of the movie release. Till then you have to wait to watch it in the comfort of your home if you don’t want to go to a theatre.

Furthermore, many TV channels does not offer live streaming on the web. However, some big channels are offering live streaming but they are a few and the quality is awful.

Hence, you might need a satellite service or subscription if you don’t want to miss out your favorite shows and sports.

What it Can Offer You:

CatchUp:

With this feature, you can catchup your selected content available on the DStv channels. The content includes TV series, kids' shows, documentaries, movies and selected sports matches.

The content will be saved for 7 to 28 days. This time duration lies in the mid in my opinion. Not too great but not too bad.

HD Qualty Streaming:

You can watch TV series, movies & live shows in HD (High Definition) quality. The quality was great for the shows which I watched. I watched The Walking Dead and the experience was quite good.

Download For Later:

You can download TV shows and movies for watching later when you are offline.

The feature is very useful as it is quite convenient when you want to want some movie offline or away from your home where you does not have internet connection with you.

Large Channels Availability:

They have rights for many popular TV channels and programs that makes them able to have a vast variety of channels for their viewers.

The channels range includes all sort of TV shows, kids, news, sports, entertainment & movie channels.

Multiple Devices:

You can setup multiple devices with your one subscription with DsTv. With one account you can register a total of 4 devices which is good.

However, simultaneously only 2 devices can access the live streaming.

Pricing:

They offer multiple packages that differ in channels quantity. Below is a general price table for all their packages. R is South African Currency.

To have estimate about your country, you have to convert the prices in the currency of your country.

*EasyView package is only available in South Africa.

2. Or download the apk from Softstribe.com & install the apk from your Downloads folder.
3. You have to register or login into the app.
4. For registration, fill out your details and buy a subscription package as you like and give your payment details.
5. After registration, login to the app.
6. You can now access hundreds of channels and live shows from within the app

Conclusion:

DsTv Now is a good option for the countries in which it is available. The people who loves to stick with their TV shows & are a fond of movies will be satisfied with this app.

However, I will add my two cents. The app needs high quality internet so I recommend 4 Mbps connection.

Moreover, not all the TV shows, series and movies would be available in HD. Most of them are only in SD (Standard Definition) which is I think a drawback. Because for the price we are paying, we should get HD quality for most of the content.

But apart from this, the app provides good services and the experience is quite satisfying.
