    Where to find Statistics on fta viewership?

    It is not AVAILABLE. What is available is a custom made, tailored program for the US market, which even has a different name: TV5 Etats Unis. This is not what I want. I want TV5 Europe which is not available here. Even if people could argue that the difference between TV5 Europe and TV5 Etats...

    Where to find Statistics on fta viewership?

    Yes but it seems they are not interested to pursue an fta venue in the Americas as long as there is at least one provider offering their channel. Even more, they do not appear to care how much their free program gets charged to the subscribers. In the rest of the world, there is enough data...

    Where to find Statistics on fta viewership?

    Can you list examples of where TV5 is not offered as fta in Europe, Asia, Australia or Africa? I know that in some of those markets TV5 is also included in various packages for a fee. But it is also free for fta users. I am less familiar with South America. However, I recently learned that...

    Thank you Pedro but I really cannot believe what you are saying. Is there a place where your statement is supported by official documents?

    Where to find Statistics on fta viewership?

    Well, TV5 could make it free for the same reason it made it free everywhere, except North America. There must be a reason why it is free in Europe! How much money could be made there? France is in Europe and I hope they still speak the language. You also mentioned the free religious channels...

    Where to find Statistics on fta viewership?

    Does anyone know where to find reliable statistics on fta viewership in North America? For instance: - how many are watching at least one hour/week an fta program on Galaxy 19 (97W) ? - how many are watching fta primarily in English, or Spanish? How about French? The question I am trying to get...

    TV5 MONDE is FTA in North America?

    Thank you, This is true and as I mentioned in another message in this thread, it will take a lot of investment to follow this avenue. Last time I checked, the cottages up north were selling for more than houses in the Twin Cities. Getting that Canadian address is not that easy and I failed. I...

    TV5 MONDE is FTA in North America?

    Thank you. I do not feel cheated but I was assuming there is some sort of moral standard for business people who will prevent them from offering essentially the same product free to some people and charge others. I grew up in some sort of a urban farm where my grandmother used to grow...

    TV5 MONDE is FTA in North America?

    Thank you. I am fully aware of TV5 being offered in Canada. We have friends and relatives there who get it as part of their regular cable subscription in Ontario. Too bad they dont care about it. Also, TV5 in Canada is different from other flavors of TV5 and given a choice I would prefer TV5...

    TV5 MONDE is FTA in North America?

    Thank you, I know about M2 Morocco and Canal Algerie. Unfortunately, many times, even if the moderator is trying to conduct the discussions in French, someone will continue in Arabic. Unfortunately I do not understand Arabic. I should probably check the programming online for those channels. I...

    TV5 MONDE is FTA in North America?

    Thank you, I did try to find RFO but as you mentioned this is delivered by a spot beam viewable only around the French Islands in the Caribbean. I am surprised that it can be viewed in Florida. There is no chance for me in the Midwest. Interestingly, France has a tiny island very close to...

    TV5 MONDE is FTA in North America?

    It is true they have valuable content. It is value to some (for instance myself) but not to all. I do not have a French ancestry of any kind and I just happened to learn French at a certain point in my life. I consider this learning as some sort of investment that I made and I feel the need to...

    TV5 MONDE is FTA in North America?

    Hi, I will appreciate if anyone will post some info on how to get TV5 MONDE EUROPE as fta in the Midwest. I live in the Twin Cities area and according to Hispasat 1C at 30.0°W - LyngSat hispasat 1C has TV5 MONDE fta over North America (the link to the beam is: Hispasat - Flota de satélites -...
