QUOTE(THEALB10N @ Jun 11 2011, 11:28 AM) On their FAQ it says Probably they included HBO HITS HD too... "New HD channels and more to come Discovery World HD, Sundance HD, a Sports HD channel and more movies in HD ". Does that mean a new HD movie channel?   sometimes in the future.This post has been edited by Qash-M: Jun 11 2011, 11:55 AM |

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Jun 10 2011, 09:29 PM) Astro force me take Super Pack 3 At the end of the day, Astro wins as you are still their subscriber.... Whichever packages which complete your requirement and cheaper is the best package I no need the extra Astro on demand! But only Super Pack 3 is worth as I need Dynasty + HuaHeeDai (this under emperor) Hmmm.... |

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Jun 11 2011, 03:37 AM) Yalo, no choice, we can't select only channel we want, it base on their group packaging. Actually we can select individually,under 'Create Your Own Subscription''Create Your Own Subscription'.But based on what I want,it's more worth it to take Super Pack 3 rather than select individually lol. QUOTE(sunnyK @ Jun 11 2011, 12:31 PM) have just upgraded to SP3 and tie down for 24months Mine also increase around that price with new rates.I currently have Sports+Movies+Dynasty+Learning,& 2 Mini's.Bill used to be around RM129 after government tax but now it will be RM140.in a way i was forced too. i don't need AOD and Dynasty but wanted ZhiZun only ( can still live without it ), don't need HBO and Starmovies as their HD PQ sucks but have to take SP3 . i have calculated my last subscription package will cost about RM 14 more on new subscription rate if i dont upgrade . we are screwed . in the end , left with no choice as the SP3 is still the best value , so watch them or not , still have to take Super Pack 3 looks good,,because got all the packages that I currently have plus HD and PVR which I want.But it's so much more expensive.It's RM160+ after government tax.I don't need AOD and New Emperor.But if want to select individually the channels I want(which are the channels I already have+HD and PVR.No AOD & New Emperor),it comes up to the same amount. So to save,perhaps I will cancel Learning.Save RM8. This post has been edited by bigbangformula: Jun 11 2011, 04:29 PM |

Managed to change 2nd decoder set with 50% for super pack 3 with metro and stocklink. Add on 1 more mini can only be done next month. Total subscription cost should be below RM100 include 6% GST. Will arrange for PVR at RM150 next week.

QUOTE No more monopoly of TV for popular sports, says Dr Rais KOTA KINABALU: The Ministry of Information, Communication and Culture will implement a new policy to ensure that popular television programmes, especially popular sports, are no longer monopolised by a particular broadcasting or media corporation. Minister Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim said the matter had been conveyed to the parties concerned including Astro. "We want Astro, for example, to create a productive and fair cooperation network with Media Prima and especially RTM. "Those without Astro facilities don't get (TV sports programmes) whereas RTM is a government broadcasting body, and in this matter, I apologise on behalf of the ministry," he told reporters after the simultaneous launching of the 1Malaysia Community at Sabah state level and Mobile Post as well as appreciating the election workers for the Batu Sapi (Sandakan) parliamentary by-election. Dr Rais was commenting on the complaints, especially from those who don't subscribe to Astro, who could not watch the Malaysia Games (Sukma) held in Kuala Lumpur this year, "We want to implement the new policy and under the licence issued by the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), we will change this situation. "In other words, there will be no more monopoly," he said. - Bernama. http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=...0324&sec=nation Better walk the talk, or else it's pointless.
