Starhub vs Singtel; Who suffers?

The scoreboard points to a Singtel Victory. But who actually suffers?

For those in the woods on what I am talking about, the recent winning bid in Singapore for the television rights for the BPL games were won over from cable providers Starhub to Singtel. As many of us are tied to long term contracts with Starhub, it may be necessary to install two cable boxes in our houses.

Competition should bring improvements and also to slash prices for the consumers at large. Instead, this competition has led to more inconvenients and most likely more expenses ($$$$) to the innocent consumers........

Plus the tie up in also mobile phones and internet connection, the loss to a starhub subscriber may also include the loss of discounts from hubber club benefits.

Battle of the Goliaths... and Davids suffer......
