DSTV -waste of money

I see DSTV has now removed their news channel that was available 24 hours a day. Sometimes important items crop up on the news channels ticker tape but since the news is no longer available from DSTV, you have to go to another device to read it, because it drops off their radar completely. I wonder if the Canal 'switch' has anything to do with it? As with so much in RSA every day something that we pay for is taken away, but the price remains he same. I am cancelling mine-no wonder people turn to Netflix. DSTV are also terrible with aggressive sales calls-can't take no for an answer.
