| Subject: UK: Plans for thousands of hours of TV shows to be put online are blocked by regulator Mon Feb 09, 2009 4:43 am | |
| The Competition Commission said today that it has decided to block plans for a video on demand (VOD) joint venture between ITV, BBC Worldwide and Channel 4.
The service, called Project Kangaroo, had been expected to launch last autumn with thousands of hours of TV.
But the Office of Fair Trading referred the venture to the Commission amid concerns that it could give the partners involved too much muscle over prices for their own content.
