There's no single right answer for every family. Here's a factual side-by-side of how Infinity TV compares with the typical ways South Asian families watch TV from home in Australia and New Zealand.
| Infinity TV | Several streaming apps | Satellite dish | Android IPTV box | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cost over 24 months | $380 AUD, including the box and 24 months of service | Each app is billed separately, so the total depends on how many you add | Dish, installation and a subscription; varies by provider and package | A box plus a separate service subscription; varies by seller |
| Renewal | $180 for 12 months | Ongoing monthly or yearly fees for each app | Ongoing subscription | Varies by provider |
| Passwords | No passwords to remember | Usually one login per app | Usually none day to day | Often needs an account, app login or activation code |
| Catch-up | 7-day catch-up | Depends on each app | Depends on the package or recorder | Depends on the service |
| Remotes | One simple remote | TV remote, switching between apps | Receiver remote alongside the TV remote | Box remote; menus vary |
| Setup | Plug into TV and internet, switch on | Download and sign in to each app | Dish installation with a clear line of sight | Install apps and enter service details |
| Support | Real people on WhatsApp, plus phone (02) 9098 1840 | Each app has its own help centre | Installer or provider | Depends on the seller |
Things to weigh up
- Total cost over 2–3 years, including any box, installation and renewals, not just the first month.
- Who will use it. If parents or grandparents watch on their own, fewer logins and one remote make a real difference.
- Every language in your home. Check all of them, not just the main one.
- Where you live. Dishes can be hard in apartments and rentals; boxes and apps need a steady internet connection (we recommend 30–50 Mbps).
- Support. Make sure you can reach a real person when you need help.
