Most of the program in Astro is available in Youtube la. After convincing my dad to change to youtube, he is even more happy now. No looking back.

I paid RM110 (b4 SST) for Super Pack 3 (since years ago and don't want to upgrade to current plan)

include Sports, Disney+ Hotstar, most of the Chinese channels, HBO Max, Prime Movies, Documentaries, News and some Korean Channels

Seem Ok to me as Disney and Max if subscribe outside already almost RM60, but I mainly for EPL only

Astro was already lacking content, now its trimming down even more.

Only reason we still have it is because orang tua kat rumah masih mau tengok, but honestly, I dont know what got already.

Warner TV, Food network, Animal Planet all sudah hilang. I mean it was barely anything, but at least was something la. The astro Movie channel keep putting on damn old movies. The tamil stuff all benda ambik dari youtube and put on as special show. Plus, last time at least can watch older episode on Astro go, now its only limited to the last two episodes.

Then keep on repeating old stuff again and again. Some shows were good la, but keep repeating it again for what?

Honestly, dunno why paying so much for. Potong content but still cahrging more and more. Its just becoming more of a hub for your streaming service where they are more of promoting the convience of subscribing to many services with one bill.

Sudah minta family potong sahaja tapi masih mau, but only see the drama which is also on disney plus. Burden by other peoples decision.

OK i admit I’ve fallen for the maxshit RM25/month offer for the premium suucka streaming for sports. Can stream on both mobile & TV but seconds delay from actual assteruk. I can live with this rather than paying RM99 for actual sports package & all the ding dongs installation of assteruk.

Paying almost 200 for assteruk to keep the folks happy, both mine and in laws and my house shares it on different platform viewing, if you look at it that way divided, it’s quite affordable

It’s a seamless experience especially for older folks and most importantly no need for tech support from me

Only Indians and Sport lovers saving Astro. If Media Prima creates a Tamil channel, Indians will shift there.

i too want to know... any users can advise...
us changing channel to channel, same as the astro remote?
or like the present smart tv, where you have to point each character until you spell out the movie you want?..

Its actually two services, bundled as one. Astro with the box and you get internet from them also. So basicly the same as getting astro plus unifi or what ever internet service. Just you get from them is bundled and slightly cheaper la. You still use the control to change channel.

Last time it was called Astro IPTV, means hujan also can see using internet, now all astro can connect with internet.

But if you are using the new astro box its like astro go on the phone, but still can surf channels.

I suppose u don't watch sports coz if u do, u know that astro is so far the best for it. But that's it.

Also I think they have a lot of local in house Malay content, so Malays still watch it.

Ya, I stopped watching sports quite sometime. So yes, in terms of sports, easier to use astro.

Also, indian content still got in astro, but nowdays kurang also. Their content used to be ok to good, but now way less with shows getting cancelled. This is the local content. The ones from india got audience but not everyones cup of tea. Which the reason astro still running in my house.

besides monopoly on sports channels, olmypics, what else does astro offer actually? we dont need them for old dramas anymore, especially when TVB has their own app.

When the next two generation finally dies off, so will astro

Dulu TV2/TV3/NTV7 got indian content, especially in the late mornings and on weekends. It was quite ok la. But after astro masuk, the indian content on these channels slowly got less and less. Now Hindi is considered Indian and you only get local stuff at odd hours like 2 am in the morning or afternoon.

The india channels also can replace with stuff streaming stuff, but the local stuff is still whats holding some of them, including my household.

Even Sun TV, which you need to pay an extra RM 20 or something for the past 20 years is now free/included in the basic pacakage. Tells you that the indian crowd might be thinning out for astro as well.

It wont be long till they tutup the indian channels, then its only sports.
