Warum haben öffentlich-rechtliche Sender kostenpflichtige Kanäle?

Hello

the publicly legal transmitters provide for paid basic services via the broadcast rail (radio waves). So the ÖR aren’t “Free” the payment structure, but at 2 cents/broadcast hour extreem it’s cheap (Peanuts) if you break down to the individual channels you’re Milllicent.

For more than 30 years there have been disputes with private broadcasters whether and how public broadcasters can be represented on the Internet.

1. The private broadcasters believe that publicly legal broadcasters have not lost anything on the Internet. And if it is, that it must not be “free” because it consumes competition. And the private broadcasters are of the opinion that the ÖR can only offer up-to-date “broadcast” but cannot build an archive, so the archive duration of broadcasts is limited to a few weeks, except for news and school TV

This is in the concrete case that the Terra X broadcast is “free” but you have to pay Netflix because stream even if only costs are in the cent range. But Netflix wants to get maximum returns. For this you have VoD and do not have to wait for a show and/or cut it yourself

2.) 30 years ago, various ÖR stations started to create different offers on the Internet and whose costs are financed from the fees of the ÖR, which then led to various lobbying in politics and whether the necessary is complete. The result is that the ÖR has to save money anyway, and the Internnet appearance has been approved at the minimum cost as a “programme accompaniment”. Also, the ÖR should not advertise on the Internet or offer payment services because that would have happened in competition with private individuals. Last but not least, there are the fee deniers who want to completely abolish ÖR(t)en and want to avoid that the “parasite” also spreads on the Internet.

3.) 60 years ago, Erhard, Kiessinger, Kohl and Strauss wanted to slow down the more politically critical ÖR transmitters of the “red” SPD countries with the ZDF and in general enforce more state radio/state influence at the ÖR and the Leo Kirch wanted to earn much more and more political influence. After 1977, Kohl, Strauss and Kirch “reformed” the ÖR by 1990 with the focus on restricting the ÖR and establishing private television and expanding/enlarging it.

4. Up to the 70s TV content was produced/paid by ÖR himself. TV series and feature films were purchased at sales and film retailers (Leo Kirch). There was no free “market” so the broadcasts were cheaply buyable and there was a regulated advertising market on TV whose profits the ÖR had to use for the pogram part or for the own production of series and feature films. The TV market in DE was “closed” and all worked according to wages. Since 1980 there were no productions for TV and even talkshow or game shows were produced externally. This is behind TERRA X is a producer consortium from several countries with ZDF, National Geographic and BBC as main producers. Terra X is produced as a mantle format and then localized with partners. Terra X gets broadcasting fees and “heared” not to the ZDF or even fee payers at every broadcast on TV. If Terra X sells over another bill (DVD, VoD) and thus earns money, it does not affect the ZDF or the get shares because of ZDF brandings and modertor parts that have produced the ZDF. This is not bad or Terra X would not be feasible/payable for ÖR, and 99% of the fee payers would have said Terra X would be unnecessary and waste money. Bzw that happened in England with the BBC that was further mined under Tories in the summer. Now, after Johnson and Brexit, many British have only noticed that the BBC is important and can also cost money.
