Orby TV


Orby TV is an American direct broadcast satellite provider based in Burbank, California. Founded in 2019, Orby transmits digital satellite television and audio to households within the United States and its territories. The company's primary competitors are Dish Network, DirecTV and cable television providers.
The business model of Orby TV differs from its competitors as it provides cable-originated television networks in their main satellite-delivered programming packages, but supplements its subscribers with home antennae to receive local broadcast television stations, which allows Orby TV to limit the amount of retransmission fees it pays to content distributors. Orby TV's CEO is Michael Thornton, who formerly served as chief executive officer of Starz.
