Abstract: This article examines the development of digital television (including pay television) In Europe and the role of European Union framework legislation in establishing a basis for standards and for the regulation of conditional access. It argues that three important elements are required for the effective development of digital television. One is exploitation of the Europe-wide agreement on the various transmission (and other) standards, a second is effective regulation of conditional access (and other potential bottlenecks) and a third is support for the transition process.
