StarHub, Singapore’s leading Operator and a Pay TV service provider, this week launched a new multi-screen Over-the-Top (OTT) online streaming service, StarHub Go. At the same time, the pay TV Operator, in partnership with HBO Asia is offering HBO Go, which is available as a standalone streaming service that does not require an underlying pay TV subscription.
The debut of StarHub Go brings content from major channels including such as Discovery Networks, HBO, A+E Networks, Scripps Networks Interactive, Sony Pictures Television and TVB. Customers can choose to sign up to a basic StarHub Go subscription at $9.90, or upgrade to Go Premium and Go Sports at $19.90 and $24.90 respectively.
The Operator said that its mobile and fixed broadband post-paid customers who subscribe to the StarHub service can enjoy the convenience of charging their StarHub Go to their existing monthly bills, while others can pay for an unlimited access with a 30-day pass on StarHub Go via their credit cards.
