TVNZ has a specific role to play as the Public Service Broadcaster to deliver Charter content and bring New Zealand to New Zealanders • New Zealanders value the principles of public service broadcasting as set out in TVNZ’s Charter. However, public service broadcasting in New Zealand does not receive stable, long-term funding • New Zealand has paid little attention to the broadcasting and media competitive environment. The lack of marketplace rules is not working for the existing broadcasting market, let alone converging markets • The lack of marketplace rules means that SKY has had the freedom to develop a business model in New Zealand not seen in other countries. SKY has been able to develop a vertically integrated business with the potential to exert considerable market power. That lack of marketplace rules and dominance by one player could lead to a lack of media diversity in New Zealand • Significant change is required across a number of areas identified by MCH.

  • The Political Economy of the Failed Vodafone-Sky Merger
    MEDIANZ VOL 17 NO 1 • 2017 https://DOI.org/10.11157/medianz-vol17iss1id180 - ARTICLE - Pie in the Sky? The Political Economy of the Failed Vodafone-Sky Merger Peter A. Thompson Abstract In June 2016 Sky Network Television Limited, New Zealand’s predominant satellite pay-TV operator, and Vodafone Europe BV applied to the New Zealand Commerce Commission1 for clearance to enter into a $3.44 billion merger. The proposal was for Sky TV to acquire 100% of the shares in Vodafone New Zealand Limited while the latter’s European parent company would acquire a controlling 51% stake in the post-acquisition Sky Network Television Limited. The primary motive was the opportunity to develop new triple or quadruple-play bundles of landline, mobile, internet and audiovisual content in response to the emergence of new subscriber video-on-demand services. The ‘Skodafone’ application was opposed by rival commercial interests in the telecommunications and television sectors who argued that the merged entity would have the ability and incentive to develop bundles of services including Sky’s premium sports content (notably New Zealand rugby) against which rivals would be unable to compete. Sky and Vodafone argued that premium sports was not ‘must-have’ content for market entry into subscriber video-on-demand (SVOD) services, pointing to Spark’s development of Lightbox in 2014 and the launch of Netflix in 2015. After numerous cross- submissions from various stakeholders, in April 2017 the Commerce Commission’s final determination declined the application. Although Vodafone and Sky lodged a legal appeal against the ruling, they subsequently decided not to pursue the case.
