Criticism of SF apps for the iPhone
Swiss television has recently become available on the iPhone. But this has not been without criticism from private media outlets.
The new Swiss television application provides cell phone users with a constant stream of news and video reports. Many people are not happy about this. It is annoying when the offerings of private media companies compete with fee-financed offerings, said the managing director of the Swiss Press Association at the request of Tagesanzeiger.ch. However, the association's hands are tied as long as SRG remains within the legal sphere.
In addition to the offerings of the fee-financed company in radio, television and online, Ringier spokeswoman Prisca Wolfensberger explains that the company is now also facing competition in this area that is fighting with more advantageous means. The media company Tamedia is also not enthusiastic. Meanwhile, they want to keep a close eye on whether Swiss television is complying with the law with the new iPhone app, as spokesperson Christoph Zimmer explains.
