[kictanet] ISPs slap Ndemo

[robert yawe]

Hi,

I believe the issue here is why should our local TV content be available on 
local servers therefore keeping the traffic within, by having it on Youtube we 
are incurring a cost of getting the stream through the marine cable.

This is a typical Kenyan problem where we grow coffee, export it then reimport 
it processed, lets get serious and stream locally produced content from a local 
server.

The problem of local content is very simple to solve but the concerned parties 
are sitting on their hands and are playing too close to the book. We have a 
myriad local series on our tv stations and woe unto you if you miss an episode. 
You will never see it again anywhere. Why Nation media, Citizen group and 
standard group don't have reruns of all their local programmes online is 
something I cant comprehend. put them up on your sites, create hype, 
and receive feedback from the viewers.


I thought that (kenyan TV on youtube) was the first thing that Google did when 
they came to town.  http://www.youtube.com/user/NTVKenya
