Rupert doesn't want Canal Plus boxes in Britain.................... biz.yahoo.com In February, BDB awarded a deal to supply the technology used in set-top boxes needed to unscramble digital signals to SECA rather than News Datacom, which like BSkyB is a unit of media mogul Rupert Murdoch's News Corp Ltd (NCP.AX). ''SECA already interoperates with others in Europe and can do the same with BSkyB's system. All that is required is for BSkyB to agree to cooperate to finalise the technical arrangements,'' said Walmsley. For viewers to receive BSkyB's digital satellite channels through the digital terrestrial box all that is needed -- along with a satellite dish to receive BSkyB services -- is a ''simple adaptor'' to be plugged into the box, added Walmsley. SECA is run by France's Canal Plus and Germany's Bertelsmann AG (BTGGg.F).
