CS Link was a satellite service that offered Czech and Slovak TV and radio stations to residents of Czech Republic and Slovakia.
Previously owned by J&T, CS Link was acquired by the Luxembourg media group M7 Group (Canal+ Luxembourg S.a.r.l.) in 2011.[1] M7 Group (Canal+ Luxembourg S.a.r.l.) is part of Canal+/Vivendi since September 2019.
The original package included digital channels received without subscription (free-to-view) including HD channels and pay-TV channels. CS Link had 419,000 customers at the end of 2009.[2] From September 2012 the company introduced a monthly service charge of 29 CZK, citing a tenfold increase in customer numbers in the five years up to that point.[3][4] This change to the previously free model prompted a wave of customer complaints and resulted in an official complaint to the Office for the Protection of Competition (ÚOHS).[5] In 2015 CS Link's monthly fee increased from 33 to 55 CZK, allowing users access to 36 standard definition and 12 high definition channels.[6]
