t '3 Fri Etri L} l 5.1 :1, l 5; C! H T C! N 5 ff Joint Standing Committee on Energy, Utilities and Technology P‘ r i Testimony of Charter Communications E LD1371, An Act To Ensure Nondiscriminatoly Treatment of Public, Educational and Governmental Access Channels by Cable System Operators 4/10/19 E Chairman Lawrence, Chairman Berry, and members of the Energy, Utilities and Technology Committee, my K l name is Melinda Kinney with Charter Communications and we oppose LD1371. Charter Communications serves 414,000 customers in 291 Maine communities, we have negotiated franchise agreements in each of these municipalities. In fact, we pay over $8.6M a year in franchise fees and capital costs to our Maine communities, all of which can be used for the operation of PEG Access channels in Maine if the communities so choose. These local channels are unique to the cable industry and are only offered on cable, ,. ii it other multichannel video providers (DISH, Direct TV) and over-the-top providers (DirecTV Now, Hulu, YouTube E Live) choose not to offer these channels and are n_ot required to do so. Approximately 15% of the communities Charter sen/es have decided to take on the additional expense to offer Public Access programs to their residents but the remaining 85% elect not to require the additional costs. Most recently there has been a trend for communities to fund streaming of their meetings online through use of general funds. Under Federal law, there are two options for the renewal of cable franchises, formal and informal. The formal process is a drawn out, costly process for both a community and the cable operator. As such the formal process is rarely invoked and franchises are negotiated through the informal process. The informal process involves a back and forth negotiation of the terms and conditions of the franchise taking into account associated costs, which include the burden on both the cable operator and community residents who subscribe to cable service. Over the past two years Charter has negotiated over 80 franchises in Maine through the informal process, working one on one with each community. What this legislation proposes to do is usurp informal negotiations by unilaterally attempting to impose conditions in violation of federal law. 2 E ‘ Among the provisions that violate Federal law are: (1) The unilateral imposition of terms, e.g., a homes per mile build out requirement; personnel and staffing, and reporting requirements; (2) The requirement that PEG channels are carried in the same manner and numerical sequence as local broadcast channels; (3) The unilateral attempt to usurp the renewal process by prohibiting a cable operator from modifying or amending the model franchise agreement without the consent of the municipality. (4) Conflating the definition of a local unit of government with an entity “designated” to run PEG access thereby attempting to circumvent the role of local government in making decisions related to the franchise and PEG operations. l (5) Requiring the carriage of PEG channels in HD, municipalities cannot dictate transmission technology. (Section 624(e) of the Cable Act, 47 U.S.C. § 544(e), which provides that “[n]o State or franchising s § authority may prohibit, condition, or restrict a cable system’s use of any type of subscriber equipment or any transmission technology. ’) The spirit of LD1371 seeks to protect the PEG stations. We agree that PEG stations sen/e a specific and relevant roles within the communities that decide to host a station. But this bill, LD1371 disrupts a negotiation process with unrealistic requirements that will not serve the municipality or the provider. LD 1371 violates federal law and Charter will vigorously oppose the imposition of any of the above requirements '2 1 1 1 2 SPECTEUM HD CHANNEL l.?lNEUP° 2 f Spectrum» Augusta February2019 1 TV PACKAGES 488 Shop Zeal 5 303 ESPN Classic 945 EWTN en Espafiol 2 489 Shop Zeal 2 307 MLB Strike Zone 946 TBN Enlace USA SPECTRUM BASIC 490 Gem Shopping Net 311 NFL RedZone 962 AyM Sports 492 Liquidation Channel 312 NHL Network 971 Cinelatino 1 (Includes Dlg'1alM\islcchannels 627 IFC 371 ESPN GoalLn/BasesLd 972 Cine Mexicano andthe following services) 372 FCS Atlantic 979 De Pellcula Clasico — SPECTRUM TV SILVER 373 FCS Central 980 De Pelicula é 2 CKSH IND F 3 WPXT ~ MeTV 374 FCS Pacific 982 ViendoMovies (Includes Spectrum 1V Select 4 WPFO A FOX 375 PAC~l2 Network 983 Ultra Mex S WABl~CBS and the lollowing channels) 376 PAC-12 Los Angeles 984 Ultra Cine - 377 PAC-‘I2 Arizona 985 Ultra Clasico 6 WCSH NBC Digi Tier1 8 WMTW - ABC 378 PAC-12 Washington 10 WCBB - PBS 23 GAC 379 PAC-12 Oregon MI PLAN LATINO 42 TCM 12 WPXT ~ The CW 380 PAC-12 Mountain Disney Junior (|11€lUd!$$l>€€1I1I1l1 TV Basic, Latino 13 WGME ~ CBS B8 381 PAC-12 Bay Area View and the lollowingservices) 16 CHLT< IND 89 Nick Jr. 382 BTN - 19 C<SPAN 92 LMN 392 399 ESPN College Extra 33 The Weather Channel 20 C—SPAN2 93 NFL Network 408 Outdoor Channel 38 Cartoon Network 21 WIPL - ION 96 SundanceTV 413 TVG 44 TNT 22 C-SPAN3 97 DIY Network 417 BelN SPORTS 45 Comedy Central 98 Nat Geo Wild 87 WMTW - Heroes & Icons 419 FOX Soccer Plus 46 FX 159 QVC 124 UP 443 BelN SPORTS Espafiol 47 USA Network 176 HSN I28 Reelz 468 The Cowboy Channel 48 TBS 188 Jewelry TV 131 Smithsonian Channel 620 MoviePlex 50 A&E 194 EVINE 133 Viceland 621 lndiePlex 51 AMC - 134 622 RetroPle>< 53 Bravo 1241 WM1'1N New B M _ - 1245 WCSH - TJN 144 Fusion 623 FLIX E 54 E! 1246 WCSH - Antenna TV 145 El Rey Network 640 HDNet Movies 55 HGTV 163 Cooking Channel 1250 WPFO - Charge!

    An Overview of Digital Television in Poland3

    D i g i t a l Communication P o l i c i e s | 9 An overview of digital television in Poland3 4 Adam Kupiec 1. Introduction of the paper: an outline of the situation in Poland The main aim of this paper is to present the development of digital television in Poland. As a member of the European Union, Poland is obliged to prepare for the switchover that will include replacing the old, analogue television signal with the digital standard. In order to make the paper complete, it was necessary to write not only about the current situation of DVB in Poland, but also mention the characteristics of this country, current analogue and digital television offer, history of the DVB trial projects and first stages of the switchover process, the biggest players on the Polish DVB market and TV providers, along with the activity of the government and the attitude of Polish society towards the implementation of the new television standard in Poland. 1.1. Background information about Poland Poland is a country situated in Central Europe. It has 38,1 million inhabitants and a total area of 312,679 square kilometres, which makes it both the sixth largest and most populous country in the European Union.
