In order to give assistance to Government’s digital migration policy, Star Media (Tanzania) Limited, a joint venture established by Star Communication Network Technology Co. LTD and Tanzania Broadcasting Cooperation (TBC), with the brand name of StarTimes, has been providing a brand new people-benefit DTV service called decoder rental since Feb 4, 2013.
As been well known, Government through the relevant authorities’ TCRA had announced that by the date of Dec 31, 2012, analog signal would be replaced by digital one in the city of Dar es salaam which marked the beginning of Tanzania’s digital migration. From then on, other regions would follow later in the schedule planned by authorities step by step.

As the leading enterprise, StarTimes has already begun offering digital services in the regions of Mwanza, Mbeya, Dodoma, Arusha, Moshi, Tanga, and Dar es salaam with about 400,000 subscribers, While services in the regions of Morogoro and Zanzibar would be launched in no time too. To ensure the spreading throughout the country, StarTimes would probably invest another $50 million to build signal towers for network transmission in 14 regions during the year of 2013. That is to say, 23 regions will access the service provided by StarTimes in the end of the year.
