Just this month,my wife told me that the Astro's fee had gone up, i said what it has gone up agian, that intensifies my desire to really have it terminated the soonest i can, there are few reasons i dont like about ASTRO (purely my opinion).
For one, the chances of you seeing the repeats are higher that you thought, one of my favourite chanells is Travel and Living and lately i got so sick of it for another 2 reasons, repeat lah and it has more of food programmess rather than travel, you see the amount of food related shows in T&L.
Secondly, commercial breaks are rather frequent, no difference at all from the free to watch TV channels, i have to pay to watch commercial screning?
Lastly, i think the money i would save from the subcription of RM 60 + a month, RM700 + a year,could give me other satisfaction than ASTRO's frustration.
Q) are you happy with ASTRO ?
P/S : It is free market, but i have only one choice
ya there not much choice...
ReplyDeleteYup! try watching during the rain, and I bet you will leave with a blank screen "services currently unavailable"..
ReplyDeleteEeerrrr... bengang!

I agree there are far too many commercials for a paid station. I signed up for all packages but luckily a few channels are still commercial-free or less commercials.
ReplyDeleteThe pain comes when it rains.
My family been stopped Astro long time ago XD ...
ReplyDeleteits quite nice la..
ReplyDeletemine is 76rm per month... i tak tengok one.. my FIL wants to see during daytime only, night time, tutup kedai.. lagi rugi, right?
ReplyDeletehey we pay for "watching tv" (i mean the square thing called TV) when it is raining days...agree boh! I watch Astro pun due to AOD only lo. I gila chase the HK drama series. No choice lo, dl from internet super slow, hv to subscribe AOD. What to do!
ReplyDeleteNever subscribed to Astro, and never will.
ReplyDeletein sabah u have no choice. have to subscribe. I need it for the cartoon programmes my kids so love to watch..
ReplyDeletei don't have Astro yet,almost want to suscribe to it a few times but thanks God,my 2 boys screwed up everytime i almost2 decided - then last minute,i change my mind .they spent a lot of time playing & not seriously studying,so...i told them,wait till im retired,haha!
ReplyDeleteya wor.. the fee went up! So annoying. but we cannot live without astro lah. Like you said, what choice do we have?
ReplyDeleteNO, am not happy with ASTRO. I hardly watch anything on Astro anymore. I usually stock up on DVDs :)
ReplyDeletenot so happy with the services and they want the package the tv channels.....but no choice. Either astro or go for the big dish! heheh!
ReplyDeleteyes they are cheating, service is not good?
ReplyDeleteI wish we had another option too!
ReplyDeleteyes, travel and living are full of repeats . if not enough, they schedule in food programmes. and channel 703 is already a food channel. I can just get fat watching so many food programmes ! Lousy astro but then again, we have no choice !
ReplyDeleteOh Astro bill increased again? I wanted to stop long time ago. Not watching tv actually. Now the tv is more for Lynn to watch Disney Playhouse during weekend. But if the price increased, I think I will just stop it and get the normal antennal fixed for the free tv channel.
ReplyDeleteno other go .....
