Contrary to a news item that was published Feb. 18 on the Newsbytes Philippines website, GMA Network has reiterated that it continues to maintain its position that the country should adopt the European Digital Video Broadcast-Terrestrial (DVB-T2) standard over the Japanese digital TV or the Integrated Services Digital Broadcast-Terrestrial (ISDB-T), given the clear technical superiority of the European standard.
The Network states that while it is currently conducting tests utilizing the Japanese standard (ISDB-T), this does not mean that it has conceded its position favoring DVB-T2 nor that it has adopted ISDB-T. (GMA Network)
