It says HD. They don't have 4K channel. This kind of proves. As much we hate NTO for killing off niche channels. It stopped from daylight loot from customers. Imagine paying ₹75 - ₹90 for something like ICC T20 World Cup.

Also it is total myth and incorrect that NTO 2.0 lead to downfall of niche channels. Reality is improper content, pricing strategy and unwillingness to evolve and show interest to retain regular audience as well as attract huge emerging audience base has lead to their current dismal performance. Also in other genres too broadcasters r blaming NTO for reduction in subscription numbers but reality is that their own wrong policy / strategy has lead to more people shifting to OTT or DD Free Dish. As far as i understand & been able to decode, Broadcasters and Operators want old system back as it bought huge monetary benefits to them....They r lacking confidence to provide channels at lower price like they did in pre NTO era as earlier they got bulk payment in advance for long term agreements so dependency on quality of content for revenue was not that high or directly connected while now customers have option to pick n drop channels anytime and pay accordingly so broadcasters know that with current content their channels would not get a constant revenue / subscription hence themselves pushing up prices to cover up revenue loss and also show that NTO has lead to increase in prices
