TM is supposed to provide HSBB internet, but they wasted 8mbps on HyppTV. can i subscribe internet without the useless channels (and reduce monthly charges)?
The 5, 10 20 Mbps is purely internet speed. IPTV is 8Mg ON TOP of the internet speed. So when you sign for VIP5, you're actually getting 5+8 Mbps pumped to your house. Furthermore, the "streams" for internet and IPTV are separate, meaning your internet surfing speed is not affected by your IPTV. I asked TM on whether we can unbundle the services and their answer is no. Their reason is UniFi is suppose to give a total digital lifestyle experience. Plus, for now (I think up to September), the IPTV services are free!!
Actually their channels are not bad la, got a kids channel (important for my kids..hahaha)...I saw at my friend's house. Plus I like the VOD concept...no need to pay for channels I don't watch. Can watch whenever I like. But I think they need a sports channel. Then more people can just cancel A**ro and take up UniFi.
I think the IPTV can be improved...content is important but like we know, a lot of the major channels already exclusive belong to A**ro. So maybe TM should concentrate on getting more VOD and getting it for cheap, and HD quality.
