anyone who has used:

astro
hypptv
iflix
netflix

will know there is no future for a.



becos it is just incapable of innovating, cling on to old ways to charge users.

it can hang on to supersports and maybe wahlaitoi while spending millions fighting pirates, that's all.

u can get uhd 4k contents on netflix.

even dvd/bd shops will soon close or downsize, just like photo print shops in the 90s.

i am surprised a seems to have no plan how to rejuvenate itself.

I guess management is rather traditional in astro, one can even say Malaysia as a whole no hope for innovation at all.
You know what's gona happen next, astro will petition and request that the gov ban netflix to secure their future.

yep, like what happened with uber.

really, the mindset of many is still very feudalistic, unprepared for e-commerce.

I just tried Astro on the go on a smart tv, the interphase is all screwed up, 90deg out of orientation, can't access full menu, slow...

TM's Iflix quite ok, a bit lacking in navigation ease, some videos lack subs.

Netflix is far superior... Easy to navigate, fast, reliable, HD.

Hate to think local expertise is that poor but come think of of it... with talents leaving, no surprise.

Not only slow internet... slow tech, slow hands, slow catchup.

But fast charges, fast collection. biggrin.gif


It will not last 10 more years, my guess...
