Norway is currently, as is probably the reason for your inquiries on the Norwegian market, establishing our digital TV-network these days, supposed to be finished within 2007 (most of the country) and 2008 (more peripheral areas).
The clear advantage is the fact that the user can connect the TV without having to install cables - brilliant.
However, the bandwidth of the signal is rather limited, not a very important issue for regular users as long as the image-quality is OK, but for more advanced use like HDTV and interactive material, the other companies in section 1-4 will have clear advantages.

In 2005 the Norwegian Football Association (NFF) sold its media rights for domestic football to TV 2 and the Norwegian Canal Digital for 1 billion NOK (€127 million) for the period 2006-09.
Because of the differences between TV advertising and virtual advertising, we hypothesised that responses to advertising should vary by type (TV advertising vs virtual advertising by location).
For example, although TV advertising might be more intrusive and entertaining than virtual ads, how intrusive and entertaining virtual ads are might depend on the location of virtual ads.
