A surprisingly high 7% of the Czech population – equivalent to 600,000 people – have said they have no intention of switching to digital TV reception.
The finding which was contained in a study undertaken by STEM/MARK for the Czech Telecom Office (CTU), also found that the majority of people (35%) are interested in DTT reception, followed by digital cable and satellite (22%) each and IPTV (11%).
ASO will take place in the Czech Republic in October 2011, though a couple of regions (Jesenicka and Zlinska) will continue analogue transmissions until mid-2012.
