Cartoon Network & Pogo added to the Titanium Package

A few days ago, PEO TV added Cartoon Network & Pogo to the their highest "Titanium Package". At the time of launch Cartoon Network and Pogo were only available as an add-on but about a week or so later  it has been made freely available to those on the highest package that PEO TV has on offer.

This is indeed a good move by PEO TV. At the moment Cartoon Network feed that  is carried by PEO TV is not Indian and is the Asian feed and the Pogo feed is the Indian feed since Pogo is available only in this region.

We hope that PEO TV considers adding Pogo to the "Platinum" & "Gold" packages since this channel is the Indian feed.

PEO adds Cartoon Network and Pogo

With effect from yesterday PEO TV has added Cartoon Network & Pogo. Pogo is the indian feed since this is the only feed for that channel that available, however we are unable to confirm what feed for Cartoon Network is being made available since the Asian & Indian feed is available for telecast in Sri Lanka.

Most of the other operators have the Asian feed and its likely that PEO TV has the same feed.

The pricing of the channel seems quite high considering the fact that "Pogo" is the Indian feed, we hope PEO TV reconsiders the pricing and makes the channels more affordable and also makes it available FOC for premiere package subscribers. It's a good move by PEO TV to add new channels but they should be careful about the pricing.

We would also like to point out that since Star Sports 2 is launching on monday, PEO TV should take steps to add this channel and if so would become the first in Sri Lankan pay television company to add Star Sports 2.

Nat Geo Wild launched....

PEO TV is continuing to add channels on a regular basis as of late and yesterday they launched Nat Geo Wild. This comes hot on the heels of the launch of "Nat Geo Music" just the day before. Whilst it's a great thing that channels are being launched regularly they are not exactly available for subscribers even to those on the premium package.

This means those who pay rentals which are quite highly priced have to pay extra to watch these new channels.

We commend PEO TV for the addition of these channels but we seriously hope that it will be allocated free of charge for the premium packages subscribers at least.

Nat Geo Music launched

As per the information received this morning, Nat Geo Music is now available on PEO TV channel slot 70, previously occupied by Trace TV. The package details, etc are not available at the moment but will be as the days progress probably by tomorrow or the day after.

This channel which focuses on regional music/cultures is one which is not available on any other local pay television company. Although the channel is not the most desirable replacement for Trace TV, it's a step in the right direction with PEO TV starting to add channels on a regular basis.

We hope PEO TV works out steps to add channels such as AXN Asia, etc in the near future.
