One thing I really hated in Pattaya is the TV available. Satellite was expensive, with only a few channels available. Even with the add on of HBO, it only had old movies that I had seen years before, some when I was a teen. Sophon just plain sux, and while I had it, they dropped a couple of their better English channels.
If you have high speed internet, and a VPN there is a good alternative. Netflix. They have on demand movies, and TV shows over the internet for $7.99 a month. Right now they are giving 30 days free to try it out. I highly recommend trying it out for free. To sign u
