2002 in Australian digital TV: ABC

Before on-demand streaming, before TiVo knew what you wanted, and before multichannels were allowed to show anything and high definition went mainstream … The ABC's reel has aged the best with least effort, focussing on showcasing content via clips. ABC had the advantage of two part-time almost-general entertainment channels to promote — ABC Kids and ABC FlyTV — being exclusively available on digital broadcast. This was the final era of using film or interlaced video for TV drama, after the UK and Australia transitioned to widescreen but before high definition production became the minimum. Converted from 576i50, including 576pSF content, some originated on film or 1080p24/25
