NOVA HAS SECURED ITS ONLINE DISTRIBUTION THROUGH TO 2040
- TV Nova’s online broadcasting licences for four channels extended until 2042
- Nova, Nova Action, Nova Cinema and Nova Fun share the same expiry date
- The Council approved the extensions at its 3 November meeting
- All four channels are available through Oneplay and other online TV services
The Council for Radio and Television Broadcasting has extended TV Nova’s licences for the online broadcasting of four channels. The main Nova channel and the stations Nova Action, Nova Cinema and Nova Fun will hold these licences until 21 June 2042.
The decision was taken by the Council for Radio and Television Broadcasting at its 15th meeting on 3 November, according to its press release. TV Nova’s licences relate to broadcasting via special transmission systems, i.e. distribution via the internet. The channels concerned are Nova, Nova Action, Nova Cinema and Nova Fun. The Council has extended them by twelve years.
TV Nova submitted applications for the renewal of all four licences to the Council on 19 October. The Council originally granted the licences for the Nova Action and Nova Cinema channels on 21 June 2018. The licences for the main Nova channel and for Nova Fun date from 5 June 2018. All four licences will now expire on the same date: 21 June 2042. This decision therefore ensures stability for the entire media group for years to come.
All four channels are available online via the Oneplay service, which is provided by TV Nova. It entered the market on 10 March last year, merging the previously separate O2 TV and Voyo services. However, online distribution is not limited to Oneplay. It also includes all the online TV services operating on our market, of which there are many. Nova operates its channels across all platforms.
