South African based Multichoice DSTV is about to push up the prices for the services they offer in Botswana. The compact bouquet is going up by US$1.67 to US$30.06 beginning April 1st, and the premium selection with all the channels is jumping by US$3.34 to $59.29.

About a year ago, another South African satellite TV company announced it was going to offer an alternative to DSTV for about US$16.70 a month. Unfortunately, nothing more has been heard form Black Eagle Communications so Multichoice customers don't in fact have any choice at all when it comes to satellite TV providers.
