thats just satellite exclusive leasing.. content wise its still sell to highest bidder

They got 20 years head starts.. only internet is their one true competitor even after monopoly of satellite use end

That explain the lacks of SuperBowl since HyppTV owned it.

Please don't say that, Najib is refuse to end monopoly of Astro!! Because he don't want all around Malaysian lose NJOI!!

multihome and multiroom, y need to take more pricy multihome when can get multiroom and put the decoder into different home, right? although 'by right' cannot do so..

Its ridiculous and nonsense to say that Najibi don't want people to lose NJOI. You mean to say that NJOI will die if Ass-throw monopoly die? Are you kidding me?

Do you realise what you are talking?

Without NJOI, more Free-To-Air TV channels can survive better and improve such as TV3, NTV7 and more Free-To-Air channels will appear. Do you realise that TV3 have to pay to Ass-throw to allow its channel to be relayed to Ass-throw? Such Free-To-Air Channels already face lots of competition and they even faced more unnecessary competition from Ass-throw own local channels such as Prima, Oasis, GoShop, Maya, Xi Yue and many more Ass-throw channels in NJOI. NJOI IS SERIOUSLY putting lots of pressure to TV3, NTV7, TV9 to get more advertisements and sponsors to survive!!

In fact, without NJOI, more and more Free-To-Air channels can appear and also broadcast more better content such as good quality shows. By having Ass-throw's appearance in the Free-To-Air channels with their own channels in NJOI, this only make the bad situation worse!!

Just look at the Ass-throw GoShop channels where products are advertised using studio demonstrations. TV3 also do have such programs BUT only for a short period a day because they cannot afford to show it all the time. Ass-throw GoShop is shown 24 hours daily. Now... do you see the difference? More products advertisement can be put into the 24hour time slot in GoShop compared to the TV3 "Shop" program. Now, Ass-throw is grabbing more of the advertising cake than TV3 just because Ass-throw is the BIG BOSS with TWO such 24 hours GoShop (Ch 118 and318). If I want to find out what trending good products are available, I don't want to wait till the time for TV3 to show the program, I just switch to GoShop channel, no need to wait LAH. That, my friend, are loss of advertising income for TV3. In fact, if NJOI did NOT exist, more advertisers can come to TV3, NTV7 and other such channels. NJOI only gives Ass-throw the EXCUSE to eat MORE CAKE of the Advertising Market by grabbing more such territory from Free-To-Air TV Stations.

Refusing to stop monopoly of Ass-throw will NOT help anyone. You may ask why?

Without competition, Ass-throw can continue to charge subscribers at overpriced Packs and increasing even more commercials. People who gets to watch "free" channels don't pay any subscriptions so they will definitely LOVE it when Ass-tro does cut the throats of subscribers paying for premium channels. What you must know also is that... more and more subscribers will get tired and dissatisfied with what Ass-throw is doing to them by pushing out more overpriced Packs, adding more new bad channels and increasing more and more advertisements. I believe what this will eventually do, is that more and more angry and dissatisfied subscribers will leave... so what will eventualy happen afterwards ? Ass-throw lost $$ income so they will find more ways to get back the lost income, maybe by increasing even more commercials or launching more Packs that only got 1 good channel with lots of commercials plus other rubbish channels.

Did you notice recently that Ass-throw sometimes show a small logo at top right of AXN HD Ch 721 that advertise for Joox Music streaming service informing us to press the Red remote button ? Previously once, Ass-throw even put an advertisement for the local movie "Ola Bola" right at the info bar when we press the OK button on the remote! Of course there are people like you that LOVES such advertising tactics and even welcomes even more advertisement and do NOT mind paying an expensive subscription price to watch more and more commercials/advertisments.

The issue here is NOT whether NJOI will be affected or die IF MONOPOLY to Ass-throw is stopped.

The issue here is whether Free-To-Air channels such as TV3, NTV7, TV9 can continue to survive or slowly die in the future.

The issue here is also whether COMPETITION is better than MONOPOLY... better for the consumers? OR is it better for the BIG BOSS corporates that makes TONS of money by cutting consumers throats.

In economics, is it better in the commercial world to have competition or to have monopoly. History has told us that monopoly and protectionism can only harm the economy in the long run. Its difficult for a layman to understand the intricacies of competition on the demand and supply projections.

Nothing is perfect. Not for COMPETITION, also not for MONOPOLY. Good or bad, I think competition CAN even help NJOI because Ass-throw is a BIG corporation that WILL NOT EASILY DIE. With competition, it can only help to get Ass-throw to improve and give us better products and services without us paying overpriced subscriptions.

NJOI will still be around even with competition to Ass-throw. With competition, another successful Satellite TV Provider CAN also give YOU and everyone else another alternative "NJOI" type of free channels which relies only on advertising income. Then Free-To-Air Channels such as TV3 and others can pay less for relaying channels and using the Satellite platform by choosing from which Satellite TV provider that gives the best deals.

Therefore, another Satellite TV Provider CAN allow us to choose between NJOI or another similar one... AND... even allow Paid Premium Channels Subscribers to choose which one can give better price with better TV programs or content.

For example...
NJOI has 28 "free" channels which includes CCTV4 channel AND 20 Radio Channels.
Another provider... I call it as "FreeSatTV Pack" has 40 "free" channels which includes CCTV4, Phoenix News, MTV Asia. AND have 30 Radio Channels.
And I pay less RM 50 on the FreeSatTV Pack for the Decoder and Dish Plus Installation.
... then of course I will NOT choose NJOI.

Don't worry, with competition, even IF NJOI dies, we still have "FreeSatTV Pack" and when more Satellite Providers enter this "Satellite Free Channels Boxing Arena", we have more "NJOI Alternatives" to choose from.

So, with competition, it doesn't matter and not important anymore whether NJOI stays or DIES !!

Please open up your mind wider and you will be able to see the better and clearer picture.

Oh... by the way... "FreeSatTV Pack" from an alternative Satellite TV Provider do not exist yet, I only "invented" this name to illustrate my point. And I don't work for TV3 and no affiliation whatsoever.

same goes to tm...

Yes, I do FULLY agree with you.

in broadcast market astro do not even look hypptv as a competitor
in broadband market tm dont even bother time as their competitor
what to do? this is malaysia ma

When my friend read my comments here, he emailed me these phone photos that he took when he saw this advertisement at AXN HD Channel 721 appearing everynight around 9.00 pm...



When the Remote Red Button is pressed, this is what appears...



When at "About Joox", press remote OK button and this is what appears...



I wonder how much did Joox pay to Ass-throw? Hundreds of thousands of ringgit per week?

Subscribers pay expensive monthly subscriptions and get to see such intrusive advertisement appearing. Ass-throw may even put more and more small advertising pictures showing a product at the corner of the screen to more and more channels. They did it before, by showing the "tiger" logo of the "Ola Bola" movie. For a very long time Ass-throw already have regular advertising breaks after every 10 to 15 minutes.

Who knows? I really don't know what Ass-throw will come up in the future to put in more advertisements. Mmm... maybe show a moving advertising bar at the bottom of the screen that scrolls or move from left to right for about 15 seconds?

Will advertising and commercials continue to increase for Premium Subscribers in the future? I don't know but I can guess it will.

People with NJOI gets to see advertisement. People who pays to watch Premium Channels also gets to see advertisements. So... the only difference maybe a bit more advertisement for NJOI.

Full Stop.

Oh... if you see this appearing, just press the remote Byond button to make it disappear. It will re-appear when you changed channels and come back again so press remote Byond button again.

In Malaysia, whatever it is unfair to do it by showing any form of ads even though we pay money for the TV channels, it will still happen.
This is Malaysia Bolehland.
Like it or not, learn to accept it.

You are right. Either learn to accept it... or don't accept it by fully terminating Ass-throw.

Yes, we do have a choice to either live in a cave trying as much as possible to avoid using bolehland products and services, becoming grumpy out of date old person... OR we can choose to just swallow it blindly, accept it and fully submit to it as a puppet or slave of bolehland. I am just wondering why the Bersih 4 campaign exist or have they disappeared because bolehland people have chosen to accept it. Anyway, Bersih campaign is just another story which has nothing to do with this Ass-throw forum thread... or is it related. I don't know, so give me an answer on whether this is not related and out of topic and I will definitely kowtow, blindly and fully accept it.

Anyway, I know you mean well by merely stating the reality to me and I appreciated it. I was merely throwing out some rubbish in my answer to you so please just ignore it. Hehehe.

agreed with u

Request for termination. The officer said I need to settle the last bill. Proceed with payment via call using my credit card. I was asked the reason for termination. Sarcastically replied that there are too many repeats and overpriced packages. Account will be disconnected in 30 days. Now I have extra RM100+/- to deposit to my ASB account every month.
