How expensive? I just learned the average price per English program is 200 USD per episode. Let's say, this is 500 USD per episode of LOST, since you say its "expensive". That's about Rs.50,000/-<BR/><BR/>So the cost can be covered by just one commercial.<BR/><BR/>For your information, I'm not working for Rupavahini. But I'm not scratching the back side of Maharaja, like you do. Are you working for Maharaja by the way?<BR/><BR/>Just don't make their problems your own. They won't stop telecasting these programs for any reason. That's their business. They just want to save few bucks, like any human being want. Don't be "used" as a tool for them to save their money.Voice in Colombohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14964480433037179536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26479479.post-1153210493131009782006-07-18T13:44:00.000+05:302006-07-18T13:44:00.000+05:30For voice_in_colomboIn case you do not know some p...For voice_in_colombo<BR/><BR/>In case you do not know some programmes telecast over ETV & Art Tv such as American Idol and Lost are expensive programme's. I do not whether you work for Rupavahini.<BR/><BR/>Even India has said that they are allowing open improts of foreign tv programmes and this has helped them to improve the quality of their programmes as well.<BR/><BR/>May be our president is taking the advice of China and Iran.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26479479.post-1153209505849120852006-07-18T13:28:00.000+05:302006-07-18T13:28:00.000+05:30You don't need to cry for the TV channel owners. T...You don't need to cry for the TV channel owners. The tax imposed by the govy are peanuts to them. They are abusing their bargaining power, keeping TV viewers as a bait. What you do is exactly what they (TV Chanel owners) want us to do. They want us (TV Viewers) to make this (The new Tax) our problem, and push the government to remove the tax. Then who'll be benifited? Chanel owners. So, don't fall into the trap laid by MTV & Maharaja. Just wait few days. ART & ETV will start telecasting those programs as usual. Cuz, they can't survive without telecasting those for more than 3, 4 days.<BR/><BR/>TV Channels earn, Rs. 60, 000 to Rs, 100,000 per every 30 second Commercial aired on their chanells. They don't have a huge purchasing cost for these programs as well. So, what do you think? ART TV is in a loss by paying the tax for telecasting LOST ????<BR/><BR/>I repeat. Don't fall into the trap of Maharaja. Just wait and watch. TV Chanells will pay the tax, and keep on telecasting these programs as usual. If you & me try to take their (Chanel owners) problem as our problem, they (Channel owners) will do us on our ass, and enjoy the benifit of tax redeem.Voice in Colombohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14964480433037179536noreply@blogger.com
