BSkyB Clarification
April 16, 2007
UK satellite broadcaster British Sky Broadcasting Group Plc has asked Computer Business Review to clarify that the commercial dispute with cable giant Virgin Media (formerly NTL), concerns five channels and not three channels, as we previously reported.
Last week, Virgin Media announced that it had begun legal proceedings in the UK High Court against UK satellite broadcaster. Five of Sky’s flagship channels were withdrawn from the Virgin Media (NTL) cable network after the two companies failed to resolve a dispute over the amount BSkyB was charging NTL to carry its channels.
