[SatNews] FOXTEL is moving aggresively to capture even more market share as other majors resell it's services...
Research and Markets has added Australia - Telco Company Profiles - FOXTEL report to their offering. FOXTEL is the largest subscription television provider in Australia providing more than 200 channels. Telstra holds a 50 percent ownership stake in the company, while the James Packer-controlled Consolidated Media Holdings and News Corporation Ltd both have a 25 percent holding. FOXTEL sub-licenses programs to other pay TV companies for cable, satellite and microwave distribution in regional Australia, including Optus and AUSTAR.
By early 2011, FOXTEL is set to allow Optus to resell its IQ and HD services after the previous agreement that ended in late 2010 was renewed. The new arrangement may see even more customers receiving FOXTEL subscription TV services being resold though Optus's satellite services. Moving with technology changes, FOXTEL allows subscribers to remotely setup recording from many mobile devices including the iPhone, iPad, mobile handsets and tablets running Google's Android OS with all the apps available to be freely downloaded. In this report, Research and Markets provides an overview of the FOXTEL with statistics, trends, estimates and analysis in tabular, text and chart formats covering a wide cross section of the company operations.
