    Tuesday 13 November 2007 RE: Response to the proposed BSkyB digital terrestrial television services consultation I wish to start by personally thanking you for allowing me to respond to the plans that British Sky Broadcastings plans to launch their Picnic platform on Digital Terrestrial Television, including the launch of the following services: z Sky Sports One; z A children's channel/Sky Movies SD One; z A factual channel/Sky News/Sky One; z Sky News (if BSkyB is given permission to launch a fourth service on DTT using MPEG-4 encoding); z Broadband up to 16Mbps and a telephony service. I wish to begin by giving an idea of my thoughts on the proposal by BSkyB before I answer the questions in the consultation document. Introduction 1. Regarding the use of by BSkyB and NDS Group, the VideoGuard conditional access technology for its pay television services. According to the press release that was released by BSkyB on the 8th of February 2007,1 the service will use a highly secure conditional access system similar to the one BSkyB uses for its digital satellite services, Sky Digital and FreesatFromSky. I also understand that Sky has also stated that viewers will require a new set-top-box to access the new service. In the past, since the launch of the Sky satellite television service in February 1989 via the Astra satellite, BSkyB have always used NDS Group technology to encrypt and protect their own branded services, with both the VideoCrypt and VideoGuard conditional access systems for their Sky analogue and digital satellite services respectively.
