I liked Cable TV a lot. I also liked BBC World. When cable stopped transmission of BBC, I got desperate and then took DISH TV connection. Dish TV had BBC. It also had an offer. The offer was that I paid 4000, and I got 4000 worth of Movie on Demand. Each movie costed 50-80 Rupees. The time limit was till March 31, 2009. I took Dish TV on August, 2008. At that time tremendous movie watching happened. With Dish TV also programming guide returned with a bang. Without programming guide we are unaware of what program or movies are to be shown. No need to refer to newspaper now, program guide is available as a Menu option in the remote. We can see the forecast the programs for 48 hours. Earlier to Dish TV, I used to visit the websites of the channels to see the program schedule.
Then life dragged on. I got married on Feb, 2010. Then with wife I used to visit movies occasionally only on weekends as on other days I was a 'full time' employee. On Feb 2011, we shifted house in Bengaluru and came to Sarjapur Road. Obviously we did not bring Dish Tv along and we took new connection of cable ACT TV. But we got Airtel broadband and I used to watch movies in streaming mode, my preferred mode, I was not interested in collection the prints. For me once I watched a movie its utility gets over. I did not start downloading the movie files till 2012. That is when I fixed Extension in Firefox for the download.
Life dragged on once more. It was only in April 2013, that I got the good mind to fix the Videocon D2H. Videocon D2H I placed online order on 4th April. The person got it fitted on 5th April. It was then that we could truly get a HD picture on our 42 inch TV. Act TV had no HD picture quality.
Now, since April 12, 2013, I have started watching movies on Videocon D2H. The way I like it is very few ads, preferably no ads at all. Just like Dish TV movie on demand channel, Videocon D2H has three movie channels which are completely ad-free and two channels where few ads are there once the movie commences and I watched quite a few movies. Videocon D2H also has the program guide available as a menu option in the remote but it is for 24 hour window only.
Few I will mention below (all below movies seen in April 2013 post April 12):
Le Gaya Saddam, Heroine, I Me aur Main, Toh Baat Pakki, Baghban, Singh is Kinng, Bittoo Boss, Bheja Fry 2, Hum Tum aur Ghost, Love Ke liye Kuch Bhi Karega, Stumped, HoneyMoon Travels Pvt Ltd., Blood Money, Chance Pe Dance, Dus, Just Married, Stanley Ka Dabba.
The above may not be complete list I will update as soon as I recollect. I also watched "Jacobs Ladder" which I had downloaded to computer.
Yesterday watched two movies "Do dooni Char" and "Kheley Hum Jee Jaan Sey".
