NBN's network technology partner, Cisco Systems, had just begun to offer internet protocol-based equipment, which enabled voice, television and data to be carried efficiently over a single network.
The advantage NBN had, according to Simmons, was that it already owned microwaves and satellites to distribute its analog television signal to regional affiliates.
Simmons says SPT's ability to cheaply run advertisements on its NBN television stations gave it a "competitive advantage", but he also found it was not easy to persuade these potential customers to switch from Telstra.

 Deja vu down under | Inside TV
In fact, since the late 1980s, countries throughout the world have deregulated their television laws to allow takeover after takeover of television stations by companies both local and foreign based.
There were those who benefited from the new rules; namely Channels 7, 9 and 10 from the capital cities who would align with broadcasters such as Prime Television, itself formed from mergers of stations in Victoria and New South Wales, and WIN Television, the Carlton of the Australian television industry.
NBN Television has kept local programming right throughout its time as the Nine affiliate in Northern New South Wales, but did lose its identity, giving in to Channel 9’s “9 Dot Grid” logo.

 NTN Pty Ltd and NBN Ltd v The State [1986] PNGLR 167 (21 August 1986)
These documents very lucidly show that the State intended to introduce legislation to regulate television by the middle of 1986 and there was no suggestion at that time that NTN could not commence transmission before the legislation was in force.
Whilst it may be that cable television will be controlled on a similar basis to broadcast television after the conclusion of the Public Inquiry and the introduction of legislation, that position does not apply for the time being.
It is abundantly clear from the Agreement that legislation would be enacted to regulate television but I re-iterate that it was not the agreement of the parties, at least from my reading of the whole Agreement, that NTN could not commence transmission before such legislation was in effect.
