Sky's Response to Ofcom's Strategic Review Of
SKY’S RESPONSE TO OFCOM’S STRATEGIC REVIEW OF SATELLITE AND SPACE SCIENCE USE OF SPECTRUM: CALL FOR INPUT 1.1 Sky welcomes the opportunity to comment on Ofcom’s call for input on its strategic review of satellite and space science use of spectrum (“the call for input”). 1.2 Sky is a heavy spectrum user, with activities ranging across many frequency bands. We use spectrum to deliver our services (via satellite, DTT, Wi-Fi and mobile), to create our content (using wireless microphones and cameras and programme links) and to connect our customers (through in-home and public Wi-Fi). 1.3 Our varied use of spectrum makes us well placed to appreciate the tensions between competing applications which make use of scarce spectrum, and the challenges that policymakers may face when considering spectrum allocation in the medium- to long-term. 1.4 Sky strongly supports moves that ensures more efficient use of spectrum, through (for example) the use of newer more advanced and efficient technologies, the application of market forces wherever practical and innovative approaches to allocation and access such as spectrum sharing. This approach is consistent with Ofcom’s general duties as set out in statute, including securing the optimal use of the spectrum and encouraging investment and innovation. 1.5 Sections 2 and 3 of this response provide brief and high level comments on the call for input. In section 4, we provide specific answers to questions that are relevant to Sky. 2. The motivation for Ofcom’s review is unclear 2.1 Ofcom states that the reason for issuing the call for input is “to understand potential demand and supply trends, as well as trends in technology that might mitigate additional demand”1. -

Social Distancing and Streaming TV Viewing Takes on New Behaviours and Characteristics with the Coronavirus
Sentiment Insights Series Social Distancing and Streaming TV Viewing Takes on New Behaviours and Characteristics with the Coronavirus UK EDITION March 2020 | White Paper Adapting to this rapidly changing environment requires the ability to quickly understand why viewers are engaging in content, beyond just traditional viewership metrics, and to interpret and adjust to those patterns in real-time. Copyright © 2020, TV Time, a Whip Media Group Company AllWhite product Paper names, | logos,Social and Distancing brands are property and Streaming of their respective owners. whipmedia.com About This Study The impact of the coronavirus has spread to the United Kingdom and every continent around the world (Antarctica is the only region spared thus far). Outbreaks are accelerating in major cities and metropolitan areas across the UK and the collective population is being directed to avoid crowds, cancel events, stay at home and work remotely to reduce the risk of contracting the disease or infecting others. As they adjust to this new life of isolation and social distancing, people are staying inside, hunkering down and turning to television. While TV viewership is already up, today’s situation is beyond what we’ve come to think about as binge watching. It’s not voluntary or by choice. It’s an extended period of content engagement to pass the time as consumers wait out the crisis. As the entire country vacillates between being worried and bored, anxious and reconciled, TV Time, a Whip Media Company, conducted a UK-based study in March 2020. The study leverages the UK based users of TV Time App’s global community of more than 13 million connected users of its TV tracking platform on both iOS and Android devices. -

Discussion paper on the contribution of the Internet to content creation | 1 1 Executive summary The Internet is a platform that is ideal for the distribution of digital content such as music or video. In general, given that the Internet empowers technology at its edges, it allows companies to introduce innovative services that can grow quickly; more specifically, digital content can be copied perfectly an endless number of times and distributed at low cost, particularly compared with physical manufacture and distribution. -
ANNEX 6 COMMENTARY on the CONSULTATION DOCUMENT in This Annex 6 of Sky's Response We Provide a Non-Exhaustive List of the Erro
NON-CONFIDENTIAL VERSION ANNEX 6 COMMENTARY ON THE CONSULTATION DOCUMENT In this Annex 6 of Sky’s Response we provide a non-exhaustive list of the errors in Ofcom’s Consultation Document, which are not identified elsewhere in this Response. The significant number of errors, inaccuracies and misconceptions suggests that Ofcom has an inadequate understanding of the context in which pay TV services are provided in the UK and elsewhere. A proper appreciation of that context is an essential prerequisite to accurate analysis of the sector. Section 3 Overview of the UK pay TV market ¶ 3.13 “An estimated one million households also receive free-to-view digital satellite.” This appears to be Ofcom’s own estimate of the number of households who use a Sky set-top box to receive television services, but do not subscribe to Sky’s DTH pay TV services. (No source is provided for the estimate.) If this is the case Ofcom should note that the estimate of one million households is subject to a wide margin of error, being based, Sky understands, on an arbitrary assumption that a certain (constant) proportion of churners from Sky’s DTH pay TV services continue to use their set-top boxes to receive digital free to air television services. It is probable that the actual number of such households is substantially higher than this estimate. Moreover, this reference fails to note that all 8.8 million UK and ROI subscribers to Sky’s DTH pay TV service, and subscribers to other DTH pay TV services, also receive “free-to-view digital satellite”. -
