Difference between normal channels and BS

[VideogameDC]

Hello, I'm curious about what is the differences between the regular channels and the BS ones (Japan only). Does their content change a lot from each other?

Regular Channels: Regional broadcasting
BS (Satellite broadcasting): Nationwide broadcasting
CS (Communications satellite broadcasting): Nationwide broadcasting

Does their content change a lot from each other?

YES.

So that means that both BS and CS are somehow the same?

Both of them are satellite broadcasting, but the programming is totally different.
