Former Romtelecom Dolce boss: There's room for another satellite TV operator

Romania continues to be the most competitive TV services market in the EU, but the low revenues of operators are reflected in the poorer content, compared with the other countries in the region, Miroslaw Smyk, the manager who supervised Romtelecom's major expansion on the TV market between December 2007 and June 2009, told ZF in an interview.

The paid TV services market could do with a new player, its sixth, on the satellite TV segment, if the new company focused exclusively on the "several tens of thousands of Romanians" who are "always" willing to pay for premium content, Smyk said.
