Pay TV

Pay TV is a television broadcasting system, where users need to pay to watch a specific channel or program. Usually, Pay TV includes pay-per-view premium content such as newly released movies or sporting events, which may be delivered at a scheduled time or on-demand.  However, it is different than Pay Per View. Alternatively, it is known as premium television or subscription television. Pay TV usually provided by both digital and analog and satellite and cable television. 

While Pay TV remains popular, the landscape of television broadcasting is rapidly evolving with the advent of live streaming services. These services offer a flexible alternative, allowing viewers to watch content anytime, anywhere, and on any device with internet connectivity. Unlike traditional Pay TV, which often requires specific hardware like set-top boxes, live streaming services deliver content directly over the internet, eliminating the need for extensive equipment. From live sports, live video streaming, and breaking news to popular series and movies, these services cater to audiences seeking more personalized and accessible viewing experiences.
