TV set peace

Article Abstract:

The deal between Telewest, the second-largest cable concern in the UK, and Flextech, the second-largest channel provider, could mark the beginning of a new era of cooperation between channel providers and cable operators. Telewest acknowledges that there is an element of risk attached to the deal, but emphasizes that it will now receive 2.50 pounds sterling for each subscriber to the new Millennium Plus package. Some observers believe that the deal is partly the result of Flextech wishing to have its own channel platform.
