History

Jadeworld began as JEDi (Jade Entertainment Digital Interactive) in 2000, broadcasting only 7 channels-

CCTV-4 was added in 2000, while CNBC Asia was taken off the channels in 2001.

JET-TV was offered to certain plan subscribers from until 2005.
The addition of Dragon TV, Hunan TV, Chonqing TV and Phoenix TV in 2006-07 caters for subscribers of Mainland descent.

Jadeworld offered an IPPV service to subscribers after a software upgrade in 2001. Movies from Hong Kong were streamed in a box-office style interface in a timetabled fashion daily. Each movie cost A$9.90.
The variety of movies offered by the IPPV system were limited, and unpopularity with the subscribers led to it being shut down a few months later.
