Are you going to record both Ten and WIN?

“Ten Eyewitness News will also be broadcast across the state for the first time…”
Yeah, I guess we’ll ignore the fact that all of regional NSW has had access to Ten’s Sydney 5pm bulletin for many years if not decades…

If channel 10 are taking less advertising revenue from WIN wouldn’t it be good If they re-instated local news services In areas which they bailed out of like Mildura.
WIN are paying Ten a lower share of advertising revenue to Ten than they would have been with Nine. But at the same time they’ll be collecting a lot less advertising revenue as a result of Ten affiliation. It is still to be seen if WIN can sustain its existing local news services given the lower revenue base. Far too soon to consider reinstating any other services.

It would seem Nine has only given WIN an SD feed of the NRL tonight. WIN’s graphics looking crisp, Nine’s not so much…
Edit: Now in HD
Even though it’s in SD, the line-up graphic and voice-over just before the NRL said that it was in HD.
