gotcha news: ARY Digital will be launched on 14 august '03 in USA

Just read the add in the local urdu paper. ARY Digital will begin it's transmission in the U.S. on 14th august 2003 on dish network. The subscription fee is $14.99 a month. However, if you subscribe a package of both Prime and ARY then it's $24.99. Can't wait till 14th Aug.

so tell me mr gohan why you are so happy..we have prime and i dont really like it..is this ARY better or something?

so you want me to be saddened by the news?
mr. shehraz there is a thing known as "diversity in openions". You might not like Pakistani channels but doesn't mean others don't either.

no i did not want u to cry about it..i just wanted your opinion about the new channel and whats so good about it..pms?

sherazCT i agree with u ptv prime is pants i hate everything about it i have wrote several emails to them stating ring changes ppl are sick of wathcing the same thing over and over again but they are PAKISTANIS afterall why will they listen.....

i believe sinse coming under new management ary digital ( formerly known as the pakistani channel) has done pretty well so i'm thinking of subscribing to them to see wat they're like.....

ary is not that good. the best program is kay aap benay gain cororpati (sorry bout my spelling). the bad thing about ary is it never runs on time :(.

Gohan, I havent seen any ads on dishnetwork?? Do you know what channel number is it going to air on, or would we have to wait for those new 'dishes' that teaser was talking about and posted some pictures of?

I just went on their website & found nothing stating that they will be starting in U.S.

Can anyone else confirm this news?

I haven't checked the local desi paper for the past 3 months or so.

The two threads for ARY Digital have been merged....so let me clarify that I am talking about Rogers Digital Cable which is available only in Canada.

I think it was the same deal with Prime TV first aired in USA.
They really don't make announcements.
So does anybody know if ARY shows cricket.

I called Dish Network and they said as of now they show no channels added on August 14th.

Yeah they do show cricket but only small tournements. They dont show the world cup as Sky do. hope that answers ur question.

Yahooo ARY Digital will be launched on 14th of August and ARY Digital is going to show PAK vs Bangladesh cricket series. Yahoooooooooooooo. BTW I don't know if its going to air in USA but I heard it is going to aired in Canada.

Spock the SAT for those new dishes was launched on Aug 7th at 11:31 PM. But I am not sure when they are going to start providing the channels.

Will it be shown on regular sattelites, current one which shows Prime TV.
I went to their website, they didn't have a single thing about cricket.

The fact that ARY shows cricket matches is enough for Dish Network not to allow this channel in their line-up. Dish makes tons of money showing cricket as pay-per-view. This is analogous if a new channel starts up and shows all the pay-per-view movies for $15 A MONTH.
