  • The potential of Mobile DTV's future
    One-segment DTV for mobile phones are gathering attention. This is considered to become the first medium to realize a full-fledged "ntegration of broadcasting and telecommunications." It is also expected that data content received with television images will trigger new businesses that closely link these two fields. By actively utilizing data broadcasts, TBS strives to realize a unique "roadcast portal"using the TBS brand. We will introduce some of our efforts.
