10 Management must be hoping that their new streaming channels will improve their viewer numbers, it will certainly give a boost to hardware and software that records Internet streams.
Like 10 Shake 0.7%. Eyes for any new channel have to come from somewhere – such as other channels.
Obviously the World Cup is special event programming, a bit like the Olympics coming round once every four years.
That said Ten need to have a look at their schedule and then do so again and make hard decisions, even outside of ratings season. If something does poorly do not give it a second chance, eliminate it from prime time and look for replacement content that will do better.
