Then they better come up with a good plan to lease out their G10R transponders for the next 10 years. But remember Mr.Murdoch is a powerful man. He can turn things up side down...:-)
It'll be interesting to see how things turn out.

Without these channels and with the poor overall service they have no chance of starting a subscription service. For instance in Australia they have a Serbian package of Pink Plus, BKTV and RTS, but in the U.S. Tarbs have lost the right to broadcast two of these channels, Pink and BKTV. Looks like somebody down under made a big mistake!
