- Abstract
- Almost 30 per cent of Australian households now have digital free to air television, according to research released last week, and it is estimated that over 40 per cent of Australian households can receive digital TV if those who get their service piggy-backed with pay television are included. These are vital statistics for those interested in media diversity. On the face of it, the figures are cause for optimism---but there are still plenty of worms in the apple. [Introduction]
