Viviane Reding, Europe’s Information Society and Media commission has reignited the debate on which mobile TV standard should be adopted in Europe. In a speech at the CeBIT fair in Germany she stated that an agreement on an industry standard must be made quickly indicating the Commission’s support for DVB-H.
The commissioner stated that “member states must work more closely to devise a common approach, compare technologies, look at possible legal obstacles, make spectrum available throughout Europe and choose together the best way to ensure a quick and large take up of mobile TV by Europeans, preferably on a single standard.”
