“Struggle is not to offer television” – Financieele Dagblad (Registration)

telecom and cable companies go the next couple of years to invest more in their range of TV channels and movies and series to attract customers? This is fodder for debate in the sector. The main question is whether the investments provide sufficient and whether sufficient distinction to be made.

For unique content sometimes have huge amounts counted down, as occurred recently in the sale of football in England. Sky and BT paid less than £ 5.14 billion (€ 7 billion) to broadcast live matches from the Premier League in three seasons from 2016/2017. This equates to more than £ 10 million per game

British bonanza -. For the football teams at least – recently came also raised in a discussion that rating agency Standard & amp; Poor’s organized on developments in the telecom and cable sector. S & amp; P thinks the huge expenditure of Sky and BT are the exception. “Operators pay elsewhere often not providers of fast Internet ‘, as referred analyst Xavier Buffon to the unique battle between Sky and BT in the UK to customers.

In addition, there is an outdoor sport little exclusive content available, says Buffon. And if there is, then have to spend big parties here equal amounts. “The purchase of expensive TV offerings should therefore much rather seen as a defensive step as decisive for the future.”

S & amp; P is not so much in the battle between cable and telecom companies which offer these parties to TV programming, but for the convenience of their TV platforms and interactivity between the platforms and the viewer. There invest parties increasingly well.
