The one on demand is Compact Plus which costs Ksh 5,200. If you love sports and aspire to watch all English Premier League matches, you have to subscribe to the Compact Plus package that costs Ksh 5,200.
About seven years ago, we used to watch the English Premier League via G-TV, which was the main competitor of DSTV, but the owner became broke and left the market. Nowadays, it’s only DSTV dominating the market. However, Amazon has obtained a license to air EPL matches from 2018/2019 season. You can stream live EPL matches via Amazon.
I love football so much that I won’t go without DSTV. Every month I make sure I subscribe to my favorite channels, Supersport3 and Supersport5.GOtv is also good, but it doesn’t air all EPL matches.ZUKU is only okay when it comes to Nigerian Movies and local content. I also like Startimes because it doesn’t require a monthly subscription.
