Ofcom looks to settle disputes between programme makers and broadcasters. Good news for Channel 4 who are looking for a 30-day window of exclusivity. Bad news for BT and other non-traditional broadcasters who might have to wait a month or two before being able to show the programmes. Until BT are in a position to buy original content then they’ll have to be content with films and old programmes. It would put Sky in a strong position with their Sky By Broadband service and the possibility of offering IPTV through their recently purchased Easynet.
