It doesn’t feature in the platforms of all Australian subscription television providers in TEN’s markets. Its not on Perth Satellite. They obviously don’t want to maximise their audience only to compete with whats already on Foxtel. BarrieT
The key phrase here is “OTV subscribers in TEN’s licence areas….”
David, Does this mean Austar in Tasmania will show channel 10?
