NEXT STEP Television and Fox Networks yesterday jointly announced a satellite pay-TV service called Good TV, aiming to lure customers with an affordable package of Bt300 a month.

 

It is Next Step’s latest move of to tap into the satellite-platform pay-TV market, which has an estimated 2 million subscribers among the country’s 23 million households. 

 

Amornphat Chomrat, managing director of Next Step, said the company saw a huge opportunity in Thailand’s satellite pay-TV market. Satellite networks have wide coverage at relatively low cost, while there is no pay-TV service provider for the middle-mass market with good content at an affordable price, where Good TV is positioning itself.

Good price for people that wants a limited choice of channels to view.

".......the company saw a huge opportunity in Thailand’s satellite pay-TV market."

 

Sad reflection of the poor internet situation in Thailand.

I'm waiting for someone to start FAKE News Broadcast. Think of all the free advertising Trump will give it for the next four years!

It's unlikely to have any worthwhile sports channels for that price. Maybe later they'll add Fox Sports etc for an additional payment.

All news today is tabloid news. When I was a kid, we used to laugh at National Enquirer as joke news. Now, that is all we have. And the new generation believes it.

if there's no sports channel it will struggle,already on free tv.we have the following,

champions cup live.

uefa cup.live.

premier games live [this weekend] chelsea v swans.live

english championship league [old second div.] live

FA. cup live.

league cup live.

bundersliga live 

dutch live.

so unless the y can come up with EG. euro sport then 300bht a month against all the above then its a NO NO.
