BT Preps Broadband Pay-TV Content
Posted: 07th Oct, 2003 By: MarkJ
It appears as if BT has finally decided upon the design for its broadcasting ambitions. The operator is expected to announce plans to enter the pay-per-view TV market by launching a BT-branded digital TV and Internet (xDSL) service.
BT is in talks with Netgem and SetPal, which make devices enabling viewers to receive the free-to-air Freeview service, over developing set-top boxes.
These boxes will allow subscribers to watch films and other video content downloaded via the Internet.
Pricing has not been finalised yet, but the set-top boxes are expected to cost around £129 each, the FT newspaper said. A BT spokesman could not be reached for comment.
