Tired of poor MCTV package

AS A Bajan and a subscriber, I think CBC offers a very poor package for your dollar.

Quite frankly, I am fed up. The channels offered by MultiChoice: limited sports packages and repetitive movies; and you’re only choice is to watch CNN, BBC or National Geographic.

Don’t get me started on the excess number of channels in Spanish! I am confused why everyone complains about MCTV, yet they say nothing in the paper about it.

Is it that we are silent and tight-lipped, or that the newspapers do not run the articles.

As for Channel 8, I do not think it fair that we are subjected to this night after night, year after year.

Now we are being held captive and forced to watch World Cup football on CBC with poor audio and picture quality, and listen to all the commentary at half time. This is simply not good enough.

Now, I have resorted to watching movies and news channels online as the options are endless. Why am I still paying for MCTV?
