Follow Spain Investment Immigration and Spain News: For television stations, the launch of new channels requires obtaining the corresponding licenses, not only domestically but also globally. Recently, Spanish authorities issued five new television licenses, which means that Spain will add five more television channels. Among these five channels, four are new 1080P full HD channels, and one is a standard definition channel with a resolution of only 720P.
The new television channels belong to Atresmedia and Mediaset, two of the largest and most influential cable television operators in Spain. The new channels will be transmitted via DTT satellite digital terrestrial television, allowing more people in Spain to access new content. However, it remains to be seen what type of content these five newly launched channels will broadcast.
Currently, DTT digital terrestrial television has become the mainstream transmission method in Spain, widely accepted by the public. It is worth mentioning that the emerging IPTV network television business is also experiencing rapid development in Spain. As of the end of 2014, the number of IPTV network television users in Spain had reached 2 million, and relevant agencies expect continued growth this year.
