Sky's pay-TV service on Freeview placed on hold |
|
|
Media regulator Ofcom has announced the initiativeis to face further scrutiny. Sky wants to offer four paid-for Sky channels on digital terrestrial television, offering news, sports, films and entertainment replacing Sky News, Sky Sports News and Sky Three on Freeview.
Ofcom said further consultation was needed as part of its inquiry into competition in the wider pay-TV market which began in March 2007.
The regulator decided a consultation on the four proposed channels would begin by the end of the summer and would be considered "alongside the wider market investigation".
Sky first announced its plan in February 2007 and hoped to launch it last year, before Setanta began screening Premier League football on digital terrestrial television.
It is rumoured the latest development will mean no final decision is taken on the four proposed channels until after 2009.
