100% correct even if you want to show sport or any of the DSTV programmes in your shop/bar/restaurant/club/pub you have to have a commercial subscription to do so this is available from Multichoice......the difference with TT... and this was recently transferred under the new contract extension....is that TT is responsible for their channel commercial use criteria.....you cannot even play a radio station in a public environment without the correct permit either.....broadcasting act still in force....nor can you without a SAMRO licence play CD DVD or any recorded form of music or visual media in a public environment without permission.....:

Muhti,what you say is 100% ,but I am sure the bookmakers are acting under legal advice so it would suggest that the Tellytrack situation has added issues that complicate the matter!
I am sure we all wish it would get resolved so that racing can get on with racing matters!

.....ditto.... but bookies must pay for the commercial sub.....and not use a decoder and card that was meant to stay at home........

I own a agency never said the old man does

Its at punters expense we want the whole picture back on TT, right now home viewers are suffering at the expense of non willing bookmakers!

.....actually some oke's take big liberties.....been and seen some of these bookies that have closed tote terminals and offering open bets and raking in the tom.....yet too snoop to pay for anything.....some have the gaul to display on the betting screens the Tab gold online betting pages.....they should be nailed and made to remove it or at least get authorisation to display it.....:

Is there a mafia in JHB ??? Sure seems like P intent on fulfilling this role...:S

Now there is no watching any UK racing..........cross with the bookies so punish their customers!!!! .....lets hope these clowns are never asked to get rid of the flies at the stables they provide................their solution ................shoot the horses .......................................................and the flies will leave on their own!!!!!!!

.....oh sh1t Rob.....you may have uncovered their master plan......for virtual racing.....only problem....phantom punters with virtual money....:S

There is no way the cops would go. No way. They were either fake cops or they were bhogut ...

Mac if you have a beef with someone.....you can get a cop to come with you.... your transport of course....and for a pie and coke he/she will affront the party concerned.....of course they will then want extra should the complaint if you want, to be taken further.....:

Im curious to know if im a punter sitting in an outlet thats pirating Tellytrack will i also be causing an offence by punting or just watching tellytrack
