PayTV refers to a television service that requires viewers to pay a subscription fee to access its content. Unlike free-to-air TV, which is available to anyone with a TV and an antenna, PayTV requires viewers to purchase a subscription or pay-per-view options. PayTV services typically offer a wider range of programming, including exclusive content, live sports events, and premium movies, compared to free-to-air TV channels.
