But for that u need UHD tv too

But for that u need UHD tv too

I think it should work..........because its backward compatible........

As HDMI cable is backward compatible we can use UHD STB with HD TV's

Also I think whoever will buy the box will get UHD channel for free as they will not implement UHD access fee for a single channel

So we can expect UHD channel for free from TS

Babaji ka Thullu. Nothing will be free.

If only 7-8 matches are being offered on UHD then what's the use of UHD connection....? I mean why to pay only for few UHD matches when future content addition is uncertain.....?

And tats a reason I think they're offering this for selected users only.
