This way it is assured by his president, Jaume Roures, indicating that the last events have left each one in his place and he remembers that the transmissions are taking place in a correct way

"The 'war of the soccer' is on the point of suffering. The last events have left each one in his place. Right now there is a stability that has recuring for already a few weeks, because fortunately the transmissions are taking place in a correct way", it justified Roures in the days 'The new business of the soccer' in Madrid, organized by the BBVA and Publishing Unit.

Roures thinks that "the spectators have been the winners of this conflict, because thanks to him they have seen more soccer that never". Despite it, Roures wanted to do self-criticism since he thinks that "it is possible to exploit the soccer of a wider form".

In this sense, the Mediapro manager proved to be "satisfied by the creation of a proper channel like 'GolTV'" and for the good reception of the campaign 'A party, an euro' facing the future.

"Our bet is an answer to a global exposition, because our will is that the Saturday party is re-transmitted by more than one operator, it is already autonomic or TDT, also in the long term we claim that there is payment soccer not only in the platform route salite, but also by means of Internet and the TDT, which will be the future for the soccer openly, because with the analogical blackout the terrestrial digital television will be universal in a very little time", he warned.

For this motive, during his paper, Roures questioned the future of the system of payment for vision. "I do not know if 'pay per view' it will stay like anything residual or will be another product that to be added to another channel that should arise and that should want that more possible ampliamante opens the fan to himself again, but the sign in several channels will end up by imposing on itself", it predicted Roures who insisted on the profitable thing for all the parts of the contracts of long duration.

The managing Mediapro maximum highlighted the suggestions that from his platform have been done "to change the Second Division and to give him major value".
