Guys, just install Astro SuperPack 3. Want to know is it normal for my Astro VOD and Astro on the GO need to wait 24 hours to activate?

Usually it is in instant. If you're still having trouble accessing to Astro Go, contact Astro customer service.
For On Demand content, make sure your PVR box is connected to your home Internet (Either by WiFi or LAN cable).

Starting today, this gonna make those kids feel pissed....






...and Indian customers who subscribed Samrat pack not long ago.

just for funsies.

Another person commented:
So it seems that, Zee want Astro to cease the channel, not the other way round.

Told 'ya.

Hmm... Well...
Although this rarely happens, but almost every time when Astro ceases a channel, it is usually due to low viewership and doesn't financially benefit them.
At least, Astro gave a proper explanation behind the reason of the channel cessation.

Very soon there could be a homemade Zee Rojak just for malaysia,the earlier was Live including contents restricted to only india.Suntv is a modified version for malaysia some events are shown a day later and slots are sold to local advertisers. Unifi Zee tamil is NOT a live version

Complicated copyright between the two countries is an issue.

Rights issues?
I remembered astro did show some programs from Zee Tamil into Vinmeen HD channel...
Was browsing the channels.. Found it ripped from Zee Tamil (since have Zee Tamil logo attached) on Vinmeen 😑

How much you paying right now?

maybe this is the reason why Zee Tamil wanted to leave astro ... so that they can pocket the money directly fr consumers:

on a different note, a new Tech channel launching on Starhub soon. Cheers.

But based on the reply by Astro, it doesn't seems like it.
It's more like, some content licensing issues rather than money issue...

Whatever it is, it's not worth subscribing that channel anyway.

The Tech Storm channel, after I Google a bit, it seems like it is a Singapore based, international channel
Never heard of it before, but let's see if Astro would take up that channel in near future.

After TechTV ceased, no other similar channel around ... curious to see how this Tech Storm TV turns out and where they source their programs.

Oh that's interesting...
Diversified action by Celcom & new market for Zee... They don't have much Indian base.. After this, might attract some from Indian communities...

RM 280.60 include 2 multiroom.

Any folks here received call from Astro (or their contractors) to have your old byond decoder replaced?

The person who called my dad says new decoder is FOC, only need to pay RM50 for installation service....they claimed Astro is phasing out old decoders due to spare parts unavailability.

Scam?

It might be true that those legend decoder is seriously EOL.
But did you ask whether got tied of contract again?
