[QUOTE="cjgall, post: 22700, member: 175963"] I don't think pan European TV has to be such a problem. Although the Dutch government are pretty strict when it comes to broadcasting, they do allow cable companies to transmit BBC1,2,Prime&World along with French, Belgian, German, Arabic and Turkish channels. Competition on Satellite is just not going to happen over here, the population is just too small, the jam would be spread too thinly and therefore not profitable. As it is, most cable companies along with CanalDigitaal are in finacial difficulties. With the advent of Digitenne the situation can only get worse. Practiacally all quality programming in the Netherlands is imported from the UK. This is mixed with el cheapo US crap. Quality home grown programmes are few and far between, unless you are a big brother fan... [/QUOTE]
