Nibus has threatened BCCI over the live feed sharing issue with Doordarshan. I feel pity for Nibus (or any private player) who invests such a huge money ($612m) and have to share their profits for nothing. Govt decision seems one sided, if they consider that any sporting action involving India is of National importance, they should pay the content provider just like the way they subsidize other commodities. The Gov't action is kind of discouraging business in India.
Finally the worst part is: Doordarshan gets the free feed, airs their own adds and fill their coffers while the Nibus guys watches helplessly.
