Re: General Sky TV Discussion

BT wins right to take Sky Sports price ruling to court of appeal.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2013...ts-price-bskyb

Quote:
BT has won the right to take a ruling by the competition regulator that stopped BSkyB being forced to offer Sky Sports 1 and 2 to rival TV services at a discount of up to 23% to the court of appeal.


Last summer, the Competition Appeal Tribunal handed down a scathing judgment concluding that the basis of media regulator Ofcom's decision to force BSkyB to cut the amount it charges rivals to air Sky Sports channels was "unfounded".


BT challenged this decision at the court of appeal and on Friday was given the right to lodge an appeal. The court granted BT the right on the grounds that the CAT failed to investigate the issue of the level of discounts that BSkyB claimed it gave rivals on the ratecard price to air its sports channels.

Interesting development bearing in mind BT`s proposed charges for their sports channels plus extra charge for hd.
