Fixed Line Forum

There are issues in the Interactive media & enterainment space that, for historic reasons, relate more closely to the traditional fixed line environment. In July 2010 AIME formed the Fixed Line Forum, holding the inaugral meeting in August to address such issues as Higher Rate Tariffs, VAT free PRS services, pricing transparency, regulatory frameworks and consultations.
