تعریف و معنای "pay television"

What is "pay television"?

Pay television refers to a system where viewers must pay a subscription fee to access certain television channels or programs. Unlike free-to-air television, which can be watched without any payment, pay television provides access to a wider variety of content, including premium channels, movies, and special events. Pay television services are typically offered through cable, satellite, or Internet streaming platforms. Subscribers may have the option to choose from different packages, depending on their preferences and the content they want to watch.
