I use a Free-to-Air DTH satellite service. My equipment, a dish antenna with a bi-polar LNB and digital receiver cost Rs. 2200/- . Cable wire and installation charges extra Rs. 700/-. I don't pay anything every
month. The free-to-air satellite service you are talking of if a mulitimedia broadcasting service. Can it be used for applications where every bit of data is important , lossy compression is unacceptable ? Secondly , if the Linux CD is broadcast along with these TV signals , won't a processing element be required to interpret the data ? These are genuine doubts. I am not trying to cross-question you . Aren't these services free-to-air because either government bears the cost or in case of private broadcasters these costs are borne by the advertisers / sponsors ?
