Just about every South African under the sun will be aware that the 2019 Rugby World Cup is underway, bringing 48 high-octane matches of oval ball action. However, there is really only one way to watch the World Cup, with DStv, but there are a number of decoders and device options to consider when deciding what you want to watch it on.

 

DStv HD Single View Decoder

Those looking for a more sophisticated offering would be better off investing in a DStv decoder with PVR (personal video recording) functionality such as the HD or Explora decoders.

DSTV Explorer Decoder 3A

DSTV Explora decoder offers full PVR functionality, with the ability to record 220 hours of content for later viewing. The decoder has internal storage of 2 Terabytes enough to store about 9 days of recorded TV video footage. The Explora can also be connected to the internet to access DStv’s online Catch-Up library, giving you even more viewing options. Available from: TakealotRaru, and Loot.
Price: from R999.
