TV 2 is a publicly owned television station in Denmark based in Odense. The station began broadcasting on 1 October 1988, thereby ending the television monopoly previously exercised by the Danmarks Radio (DR). == History == TV 2 has six subsidiary stations known as TV 2 Zulu, targeted at the youth; TV 2 Charlie, oriented towards older audiences; TV 2 News, a 24-hour news channel (launched on 1 December 2006); TV 2 Film, a non-stop movie channel (launched on 1 November 2005); TV 2 Sport, a dedicated sports channel; and TV 2 Fri, a leisure and hobby channel (launched on 5 May 2013), as well as the internet-based pay-per-view channel TV 2 Sputnik which started broadcasting in December 2004. In 2006 TV 2 had about 1,000 employees and revenues of 1.9 billion DKK. The station has been a full active member of the European Broadcasting Union since 1990. On 23 August 2006 TV 2 acquired at an auction the FM radio license relinquished by Sky Radio (part of Rupert Murdoch's Australia-based News Corporation) when it closed down its Danish operations in November 2005. The auction lasted 20 minutes, and TV 2's winning bid was worth 23,000,000 DKK. From 1 November 2009 all Danish television broadcasting became digital with DVB-T and MPEG4 standard. At the time, TV2 did not encrypt their main channel, but TV2 Zulu, TV2 Charlie, TV2 Film, TV2 News and TV2 Sport now need payment cards to be decoded. From its beginning, it has been possible to receive the main channel (TV2) outside of Denmark, primarily in southernmost Sweden and northernmost Germany (where a Danish minority lives), but starting 11 January 2012 TV2 decided to encrypt its main channel as well. This means significant difficulties for their viewers in Germany and Sweden. The main problem is that subscribers need a Danish postal address for ordering a decoder card. The channel has, however, declared that it aims to find some sort of solution to this problem, as TV2 Danmark is considered a "traditional channel" in the non-Danish territories described. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「TV 2 (Denmark)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
