In today’s digital era, your home entertainment options are no longer limited to cable boxes and antennas. With high-speed internet reaching every corner of Tamil Nadu, it's time to understand the difference between IPTV, OTT streaming apps, and DTH satellite services.
DTH uses satellite technology to beam live TV channels directly to your home. It works without internet and is ideal in areas with limited broadband connectivity. However, packages are often rigid, and you can't watch on-demand content.
OTT platforms like Netflix, Hotstar, Prime Video, Zee5 allow you to stream content via the internet. You choose what to watch, when to watch — on mobile, smart TVs, laptops, and more. No dish or cable required, just a reliable internet connection like Krishiinet Fiber.
IPTV delivers live TV channels — just like DTH — but over the internet. It gives you access to regional, national, and international channels in HD. With Krishiinet’s IPTV service, you enjoy live TV without any satellite dish or long-term lock-ins.
