British Satellite Broadcasting versus Sky Television
1.
Why BSB discounted the possible entry of Sky Television lied in that although BSB had been aware of the impending launch of Astra, a medium-powered communications satellite, BSB had discounted the possibility of the satellite could be ud to broadcast.
The Astra satellite was launched for technology purpo.
According the BSB’s analysis, the Astra satellite was regarded as technology- rather than programming-led. Therefore, it was an unlikely threat.

BSB was stunned becau of the above disadvantage of the dish and reliability of Astra. They thought that there were not any competitive threats; at the same time BSB itlf possd some advantages in terms of technology and standard.
BSB ud high-powered satellite to broadcast.
