Crossy Posted May 16, 2017 Author Share Posted May 16, 2017 28 minutes ago, janclaes47 said: Seems BKKBlue was right on the ball ( pun intended) with his post about the arrest last week. Indeed and it looks like hurting the local EPL provider was something of a bad move. The fact that ThaiExpatTV is back up, streaming UK and Aussie Free to Air content, suggests that (at present) the authorities are only interested in protecting the interests of Thai companies and don't care about the BBC et-al. We shall see what transpires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it will be so difficult to obtain a license, but it will only be available to legitimate businesses, and will involve a fee per box sold or imported. I also highly doubt that a supposed multi million dollar business " run by a guy", as pointed out in the post above yours, will be included in that category.

BKKMG Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Thai Expat is still working, therefore bodies at the helm. It is suggested that they are one and the same with 365sport and Expat Premium..... Would it not be prudent to expect refunds from the above as they are still touting for business?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddhalady Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 According to the Telegraph article, the High Court case in the UK only specified four British broadband providers who must now block connections to servers hosting pirated matches. Couldn’t find any reference online to the Premier League making a complaint to the Thai authorities about Thailand-based streaming. Not that I’m up to working out how streaming, etc is done , but it seems to me the UK court case might have been used as an excuse to benefit True Visions…..should like an explanation of any connection between the arrests here and the court case in the UK from tech-savvy footie fans.

Yes still working with me to. When I asked about this (as Expat TV had changed their format to that similar with 365) both told me they were separate companies and had nothing to do with each other...so ???????

There are no Thailand based EPL streams, they are all UK based, but 365Sport was the redistributor of those streams, and in the article of the arrests is clearly stated that they acted on advise of the FAPL, which means the Thailand representative for Premier League in the UK.

Yes but places like Lazada would be legal pretty sure they will have a licence admited they are clean of apps but installing is not hard. I wonder if thats why the box on iptv club is "soldout"? Or just not supplying them any more. Have a feeling this will run and run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossy Posted May 16, 2017 Author Share Posted May 16, 2017 Guys 'n Gals It is rapidly becoming apparent that moves are afoot to declare any and all streaming services illegal and pull the plugs. Whether this is the Thai government acting alone or in collusion co-ordination with the UK / others is unclear at present. This being the case I'm going to close this thread whilst we discuss the way forwards with Admin. PLEASE do not start others, they will be removed without warning or notice. Sorry. but watch this space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
