'No Big Deal': YouView To Miss Olympics
The Telegraph , Tuesday, June 26, 2012 1:42 PM
Marc Watson, the chief executive of BT Vision and YouView board member, has dismissed the continued delays to the launch of the highly anticipated service, (also backed by ITV, Channel 4, Channel Five, TalkTalk and Aqiva) which will mean it misses being on sale in time for the Olympics. He told The Telegraph: “From our perspective missing the Olympics is no big deal. We take a really long term view of YouView. This is a platform for the future – we do want to build it out to millions of people and we’ll take several years doing that.”
