BT Vision is a subscription digital TV service offered by BT Group in the United Kingdom which was launched in December 2006. As of March 2012 it had an estimated 717,000 subscribers.
BT Vision is a "hybrid" Digital Terrestrial Television and IPTV service; it delivers TV channels on the DVB-T digital terrestrial platform (using a Freeview decoder) and on-demand content through a hybrid DTT/IP/PVR set-top box, known as the Vision+. BT requires customers to sign up to the BT Broadband internet and phone service in order to use BT Vision, with connection via BT's official router, BT Home Hub.
When British Telecom (BT) was privatised in 1984 it was barred from providing television broadcasts over its telecommunication network, which meant that it was not possible for BT to provide a cable television service. The ban was designed to protect the new smaller telecommunications companies and the small cable television networks in the United Kingdom as it was felt that BT had an unfair advantage because its pre-privatisation monopoly meant that its equipment was already installed in virtually every home and business in the country. In January 2001, the ban was lifted.
Vision or visions may refer to:
When it all came down
And we had the bad vision
I could feel the rise
As the spirits surround
When it all came down
And we had the bad vision
Strange thoughts inside
As the spirits surround
When it all came down
And we had the bad vision
I could see their eyes
