Hi,
Bert Manfredi:
> Also, all programs will include their original language sound track.
My friend who lives in Italia will be very happy about this, because
all these dubbed soundtracks drive him crazy. Especially since the
number of voices seems to be limited, and they are not always too
similar to the original voices.
But what about the rights issue ? I've always thought that dubbing a
movie makes it less valuable, and therefore cheaper to broadcast.
This could have been overcome with conditional access to the Italian
market only. How can they afford not to ? Or is it simply that the
reach of the transmitters ends very close to the border ? There are
the Alps, that will form a natural barrier for the airwaves.
I find that there is an insane number of Italian language channels
on the Hotbird satellite (DVB-S). Surely not all of them are going to
be carried nation-wide on DTT (DVB-T) ? And BTW, none of them seem to
have multiple soundtracks.
Anyway, bravi !
Regards,
-- Jeroen
