High definition television
In an initial report issued in July 1989, the Office had called upon Europe to intensify its actions to counter the Japanese offensive in the field of high definition television (HDTV), in view of the importance of the economic and cultural issues at stake. The rapporteurs, while defending the European MAC broadcasting standards, had already asked pertinent questions about the advent of HDTV systems using digital transmission which appeared to be inevitable, although the schedule appeared extremely uncertain.
