Pay Cable from a Pay TV provider (such as UPC)

Cable providers still provide Analogue services. It is up to them to switch those services off. They also provide Digital services. If you are a cable customer talk to your provider about upgrading to Digital TV. You do not need to do anything. UPC do not provide access to RTÉ News Now.

According to ComReg as of May 2012 69% of Irish consumers subscribe to some form of pay TV from Cable and Satellite providers. With just 4.4% of subscriptions being to analogue services.

There are now more options for consumers to move to other digital TV providers.

RTÉ One, RTÉ Two, TV3, TG4, 3e, BBC set of channels, Channel 4 set of channels and many more TV and Radio services (including RTÉ Radio 1, 2FM, Lyric FM and RnaG). Variety of channel depends on the package that you subscribe to.
