My guess not a single new DTH player will walk in as the exsisting ones are still unable to penetrate households simply cos its expensive! Just another big donation to MMC and asstro will get another extension, reason no other player! Even if the exclusivity expires.which other player can afford the costs?TM carries some exclusive channels on astro after Feb,2017so what?Msians hv been bored to death since 1995 now TM??????????? With so many FREE content around its quite doubtful DTH Tv which is too expensive will be a priority. So many players are holding the licence but only 2 cronies of bn/umnu are operating!

The main problem is contents is expensive. especially sports  plus our shitty currency. so i doubt they will be new company

Yup. Because of expensive content & shitty currency..
Astro might even increase the monthly fees
Just wait & see later

Then we terminate lorh simple mathematics hahahaha

But if they got Your Name in HD ill definitely buy T_T

But if they got Your Name in HD ill definitely buy T_T

I'd wish same thing for Love Live movie back then, but it didn't happen anyway...

I wish so
Kissanime not show it properly and their subtittle
Never see Astro showing romance/idol japan anime movies on Astro First

But for Animax On Demand for sure they have it
I enjoy watching Love Live series on demand & the pic is amazing
Just wonder why Astro not make all On Demand(OD) show in native 16:9 SD
Atleast OD pic is way more better than Astro channel.
I think astro use MPEG4 for all SD & HD content on OD FREE & PLUS

But still their charge RM15/month for OD PLUS!!
When Animax On Demand first launch on astro.
I think the price only RM12/month

TVB Classic 305 is in native 16:9, yet astro still choose to 4:3 letterbox'ed it. 

according to astro, a lot user still on CRT TV

what BS excuses is that....

Speaking of this.

A hokkien drama played 4:3 format in HD channel..   

And back to16:9 during commercial.

actually they want to avoid some subscriber to have blank image when they broadcast in native 16:9. some old decoder dont support 16:9

Astro should give free upgrade for all old decoder..

then we won't have such issues

Already 2017 so maybe about 10% Astro customer not upgrade to byond stb.

About time to use fully MPEG4 SD and better pic on SD channel.

seems like Aniplus might coming to astro this year as aniplus contents now on astro OD(on demand).
speaking of OD, OD download speed sometimes fast sometimes slow even in unifi.

That ANIPLUS On Demand is HD or SD 16:9?
That include on Astro OD PLUS right?

Some hope ANIPLUS HD will be launch on Astro this year.
