Price plays an important role in every aspect of technology. How expensive or how cheap the price of a commodity is, greatly matters. Shares in the stock market are priced to the lowest kobo!

The reason isn't a mystery - the rates at which a product sells establishes the price of all other variants of the product would be sold. To the satellite investor, any slight decrease in price might lead to loss as not one of the products is sold nationwide. A decrease in price is however welcomed by the consumers - it makes way for other commodities to be bought. A decreased price increases the number of subscribers and vice versa.


Aside from all these reasons, Nigerians of today are much in love with cheap valuable products in the market. And the cable tv investors seem to dance to their tunes as the prices of their hardware keep decreasing even as the country is recovering from the recession. Getting a cable tv decoder to your house is quite cheap. One similarity across brands is that they all seem to be in the same price range. You might need to pay more though if you need the service of an installer( this is recommended).
