Sunny Valentine Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 As I will open a new bar in Pattaya soon, I consider hooking up to UBC forsome sportsand the like. I enquired by phone at their office, they told me (in somehow broken, but comprehendable English) that this is all right (to use it to entetain guests) and the price remains the same as for home use. On their Webpage (Scroll down) it states: The Subscriber shall use the subscription service privately only in family (not in public or for any commercial benefit). The use of the service for any other purpose without prior permission of the Company shall be deemed a breach of the subscription agreement and relevant laws including the Copyright Act with criminal penalty. Now what? Does anybody know more about this? Do they have commercial packages? At what price? Are all the hundreds of bars publicly broadcasting UBc for their guests in breach of the rules and prisonbound? Am I missing a point?

ZZZ Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 There is some info on their website http://www.ubctv.com/eng/GetUBC_Pricing.aspx As usual in Thailand the links from this English page is dead so your best bet is to send them an email to get first hand information.

roiet Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 The copyright law is now applied to almost everything from selling copied designer cloth to playing copied CDs in public and running UBC in Restaurants etc, etc The law enforcement is carried out by government appointed organisations like Legasit (Legal Sitcom) etc Now what? UBC starts selling commercial packages for hotels etc but for small restaurants and bars its done case by case. Better doubleckeck with UBC, you could run into legasit random ckecks resulting in very heavy fines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davethailand Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 You'll be joining hundreds of other bars and restaurants in pattaya that have UBC also. Don't worry about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
