$1.3bn UK LTE auction opens December 11

Image
LTE services across UK carriers are likely to launch in May or June 2013, regulator Ofcom  has confirmed, setting dates for the 4G spectrum auction as well as reserve prices totaling £1.3bn. The application process will begin on December 11, with bidding itself starting in January and, Ofcom warns, potentially lasting for “a number of weeks” until winners – and costs – are confirmed by the end of March. Ofcom has apparently developed a special auction tool for participants to use, with all bids submitted electronically. Depending on how long the bidding process takes, the final prices and list of winners will be settled in either February or March, with licenses granted as soon as buyers stump up the fees. According to Ofcom’s rules , exactly which of the bands each interested party will be able to bid on will depend on how many “points” they hold, calculated based on the size of the deposit they make initially.

Viacom, yet again, dismisses Netflix impact on Nickelodeon

During its most recent quarterly earnings call, Viacom was met with the question of how Nickelodeon’s ratings have experienced steep and seemingly inexplicable ratings drops. Inexplicable, that is, unless you think about Netflix and the fact that it is ramping up its children programming. Last month, a study revealed that homes with Netflix or other streaming platforms have shown declines in children’s TV viewership. So when this question came up during the earnings call, Viacom Philippe Dauman called it “complicated.” He said, “There are ratings measurement issues. There certainly has been some compelling programming on some of our competitors, which we can clearly address. We will do what we always do: We will research our audiences, we’ll review our pipeline, add more diversity in our programming.” There is no shortage of analysts – and real data to back it up – that opine that the phenomenon of “cord cutting” is very real. There are actually people who are canceling cable and satel...
