Pig ignorant me, WHAT Subscription service from the 7, 9 & 10 Networks?????
I remember them waffling on about the possibility of such when Digital Terrestrial TV was being first advertised but nothing since.

The rushed decision to roll out the new service comes as TV stations Nine, Seven and Ten move to roll out their own subscription services that could strip business away from Foxtel who sell one of the most expensive subscription TV services in the world.

3rd paragraph of that press release also in the first is the comment that the 'TV stations' , note PLURAL 'STATIONS' etc etc...........

Another thought is will this be Australia wide or will it be area restricted like VAST so as not to infringe on the licenses of the current Rural and Regional Broadcasters?
