The future of the TV industry
The development of the TV industry had widely developed over the years but there are some british broadcaster such as BBC and Channel 4 are at risk of being bought by the US media company like Google and Apple,
What do you think the impact of the US media companies will have on the british television industry?
The impact it would have is that it will make the channel more American based by the company of Google and Apple. In my opinion the impact of the US taking over the BBC and Channel 4 is content which you have to pay for programmes and you could have to pay a lot for a program. BBC will be around because it is funded by us the viewers, it is license by us the viewers. US media such as Netflix may become a payed channel along with other Major US media.
