What is free view

Freeview is a new television and radio platform that is backed by a consortium of broadcasters including TVNZ, CanWest TVWorks, Maori Television Service, and Radio New Zealand. Freeview exists to promote access to the very best in high resolution, digital quality pictures and sound with no monthly fees and no contracts. However, Freeview itself does not operate the TV or radio channels – it's the broadcasters who decide what channels and programmes they will transmit.

Briefly

Until now, the pictures on television seen by the majority of New Zealanders have been by virtue of analogue transmission.
It's been this way since TV was first broadcast
Now, for the first time, there is a new era in television. Until now, the pictures on television seen by the majority of New Zealanders have been by virtue of analogue transmission.

It's been this way since TV was first broadcast.
Now, for the first time, there is a new era in television.  New Zealanders will be able to watch their favourite programmes in crystal clear, high quality, digital  for free.

Why is this happening?
At some time in the next 6-10 years, the current analogue service will be 'switched off'. Freeview is being launched now to start the transition from analogue to digital broadcasting.
Digital television and radio is available around the world and Freeview is here to ensure all New Zealanders have the opportunity to experience it.

Who can get Freeview?
All New Zealanders can get Freeview.
Once you have purchased a freeview receiver and if you need one, installed a satellite dish your favourite programmes are free.
You will not have to replace your current television. The set top box converts the digital signal so you can see Freeview on your existing television.

What will Freeview give me?
Firstly, it will make bad reception a thing of the past.
And it will enable you to access your favourite television programmes and national radio, in crystal clear, digital quality with no monthly fees and no contracts.
Freeview will initially broadcast TV One, TV2, TV3, C4, Maori Television, Radio New Zealand National and Radio New Zealand Concert. Later, more channels will be added, including a family channel, News and Factual channel, and specific special interest channels.
