Как сообщается в официальном пресс релизе MTG групп, причина прекращения вещания : невозможность получить необходимую лицензию .
В течение прошлого года " Радуга " работала очень усердно делая все для получения лицензии, которая, несмотря на все усилия не была предоставлена. Следовательно, у нас нет выбора, кроме как закрыть операции.
На сколько следует из сообщения, до 6 декабря абонентам Радуга ТВ будет предложен вариант перехода на другого спутникового оператора.
Оригинал пресс релиза :
The Russian digital satellite TV platform Raduga TV will stop its broadcasting services on 5 December 2014, as it has not been granted the required broadcasting license from the local media regulator. MTG will continue to enhance the content and technology of its Russian pay-TV channel business Viasat, and will launch five new HD channels in 2015.
MTG has owned 50% of Raduga Holdings S. A., the principal owner of LLC DalGeoCom, which operates Raduga TV, since February 2010. Raduga TV launched in February 2009 and has offered a wide range of Russian and international channels all across Russia.
“This has been a very difficult decision taken with the other shareholder, given the impact it will have on employees, customers, suppliers, and all of the other stakeholders of the business. Over the past year Raduga has worked very hard exploring all options for obtaining the right license, which despite their efforts has not been granted. We therefore have no choice but to close down the operations. We are working hard to move our subscribers to another satellite operator and will make an announcement by December 6.”
“The decision does not affect our successful pay-TV channel business Viasat, were we will launch five new HD channels in 2015. Viasat offers 15 channels in Russia, five of which are among the country’s 20 most popular channels.”
Irina Gofman, EVP/CEO of Russia & CIS and Pay-TV Emerging Markets
