Cable Television
IBC was launched in 1994 as the only cable television service. However, it faced stiff competition from the satellite television network TrueVisions, and failed to expand its content. Because of this, it closed down in 2001, and was replaced by its competitor since then.

Famous quotes containing the words cable and/or television:
“To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars.”
—Douglass Cross (b. 1920)
“It is marvelous indeed to watch on television the rings of Saturn close; and to speculate on what we may yet find at galaxy’s edge. But in the process, we have lost the human element; not to mention the high hope of those quaint days when flight would create “one world.” Instead of one world, we have “star wars,” and a future in which dumb dented human toys will drift mindlessly about the cosmos long after our small planet’s dead.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
