I noticed a change made to this page, which moved the 7 Darwin affiliate to the "Seven network owned" section, with a note saying it was Southern Cross owned. I reverted it back as that is the point of different sections of the list. 7 Darwin is just that, 7 Darwin, an affilate, and not part of the Seven Network anymore than Southern Cross Ten Victoria (to choose an example) is part of Network Ten. 7 Central is also an affilate, owned by Southern Cross, and also badged as 7, so why wouldn't that be moved as well? Because it isn't in a capital city? Then how about moving Southern Cross Tasmania and SC Ten Capital to the first list as well? You see what I mean... the lists (this list and also the Nine Networkand Network Ten affilate lists) need to be consistent, otherwise there's no point.
Maybe sorting by station ownership isn't the best way to go, in which case feel free to re-arrange the list - but not just one item in the list at random.
I plan to do a more detailed table on the List of Australian television channels page detailing affiliates and stations in Australia. --Chuq 12:58, 9 Mar 2004 (UTC)~
Should comment be made (possibly in the Sport's section) about the lawsuit on Seven that was started today Lochok 09:06, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
i noticed that at the top of the page it states that 7 is the biggest television network when further down the page it states it is #2.
Seven owns metro stations in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth, as well as Seven Queensland (based in Maroochydore) and possibly some other regional stations in Western Australia. The Nine Network, on the other hand, owns Stations in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, as well as the Darwin station while Nine Adelaide and Perth are owned by separate companies and are effectively affiliates. Seven is the largest commercial network, while Nine has had better ratings figures (although recently Seven appears to be challenging Nine in this area). JB
