Pay TV Multiplexes
Many Pay TV services on cable television offer multiplex packages, in which a single service offers a number of separate channels to its subscribers. The channels may be distinct, be timeshifted, or offer different views of the same event like overviews of a car race, the view from different drivers' cars, or a view of the pits. Some pay TV multiplexes offer picture in picture (PIP) capabilities to follow the various feeds simultaneously on one screen. If the hardware allows, several channels in one multiplex can be viewed simultaneously.
Pay TV may be on a subscription or a pay-per-view basis.

Famous quotes containing the word pay:
“This whole business of Trade gives me to pause and think, as it constitutes false relations between men; inasmuch as I am prone to count myself relieved of any responsibility to behave well and nobly to that person who I pay with money, whereas if I had not that commodity, I should be put on my good behavior in all companies, and man would be a benefactor to man, as being himself his only certificate that he had a right to those aids and services which each asked of the other.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
