I think when you said Tata Sky, Dish, you are referring to Indian cable channel providers ? Mostly they will not have captioning. Often some movies, usually the foreign movies will have subtitles. But other than that at India, you'd never have captioning for most of the channels on TV :( I watch some comedy shows like The Office, The Simpsons, Family guy on Hulu which has subtitles for some episodes. Some movies on Youtube and Hulu have subtitles. However, they aren't that popular and awesome movies. Also there are various plethora of documentaries on net, which do not have subtitles as well. Google has been captioning selected videos mostly in the Google developers category and couple of few tech talks. Regards, -- Bharat | http://twitter.com/shettyb
