More than half of NZ watch DTV


A report commissioned by NZ On air has found that 55% of households now have digital television of which 45% receive Sky TV and 10% Freeview.
Freeview is available both from the satellite and terrestrial platforms.
The analogue switch off in NZ was to be when 75% of households had converted to digital TV or in 2012 whichever came sooner.
The new report concludes that analogue TV is unlikely to be switched off before 2012.
