Loose cog Posted June 29, 2013 Share This is my 1st year back in SA and was looking forward to following the TDF from the comfort of the couch. I can't believe the poor commentary DSTV has signed into for this year's TDF, what are they thinking! Surely they could have purchased a better coverage package given the exorbitant monthly fees? The sound quality and volume is poor. Anyone know where I can get an alternative commentary broadcast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pastapouch Posted June 29, 2013 Share Sadly for sportsfans other than rugby football and cricket you're not gonna get the best. and with the rugby contract being R1.5bn most of your money goes towards that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braailegend Posted June 29, 2013 Share Its not only the sound quality, but that commentator is lousy! where is the guy that used to commentate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loose cog Posted June 29, 2013 Share 13:56 and commentary from Phill Ligget just commenced! Thanks DSTV, we pay you enough to look after us !!!!!!!! I don't have HD but glad we have Phill back. Can't get iTV player to stream broadcast but at least commentary and sound since improved. braailegend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavmeister Posted June 29, 2013 Share We are one of a very few countries that show the entire stage, that is why commentary with Phil and Paul commences later in in the race, when all the other broadcasters join, I actually think we are extremely lucky/spoilt!
