Channel Selection
Satellite systems come with a selection of channel packages
or you can simply choose the channels you want. With
over 375 Audio and Video channels to choose from, there
is no shortage of options.
With multiple start times you aren't limited to one
set time to watch your favourite weekly program or movie.
And with optional receivers, you can keep up with the
latest in HDTV technology. Some Satellite providers
also offer high-speed, Satellite-based Internet - up
to 400Kb per second - so there is more to Satellite
than just television.
Satellite systems also offer access to pay-per-view
programming so you can watch your favourite movies.
Ordering it is simple, and you get the same digital
quality as all the other Free Satellite Channels.
Other program options include access to weather channels
across the country. ExpressVu, for example, offers instant
weather access to over 100 Canadian cities.
Time shifting is another convenient feature that Satellite
offers. With so many channels you often will have access
to both East and West time zones of popular TV networks
- so you have an option when it comes to watching your
favourite show. You don't need to rush home to catch
the latest episode. In short, you have more choices
with Satellite, so you can fit your shows into your
busy lifestyle.
Now let's take a closer look at the Star Choice and
ExpressVu Satellite systems.
The Star Choice Alternative
The Star Choice Satellite system offers customizable
channel packages, giving you access to Canada's largest
channel lineup - over 370 channels. Choose from a selection
of movies, shows, sports, news and more at the touch
of a button.
Star Choice also lets you take advantage of time shifting,
providing you access to your favourite shows more than
once per day.
You can even set event timers for up to 25 events, so
you'll never miss any of the action. The Star Choice
Satellite systems also come with the IPG, an onscreen
guide that lists and colour codes all the programs.
The IPG also lets you create a Favourites list for at-a-glance
channel selection. And you can perform interest, title
and artist searches for the music channels.
With closed captioning, receiver messaging capability
and parental channel lockout, you are in control.
Star Choice's system, fully loaded with all the options,
offers far better value when you compare it to a digital
cable package. Plus you always get crystal-clear digital
picture and Dolby® surround sound.
To compete against cable TV providers, Star Choice offers
very attractive programming credits to cut the cost
of getting into Satellite - so getting started is easy.
They also offer a free move program: if you move, they
will provide a free replacement dish.
