| dc.description.abstract | On December 2, 2007 Brazil started a new phase in television, charactherized by the change from the analogycal plataform to the digital one. The digitalyzation defines a new period in television, reconfigured in a way that emerges with new denominations, such as PluriTV, expanded TV, IPTV, and many others that are not relevant to mention at this moment. What matters in this process is the multiple possibilities brought by what we call digital convergence, or media convergence that, by crossing several types of media, reframes them all and creates a future yet unknown, with the emergence of new audio-visual conjuctions. One of the products brought by the convergence environment is this new digital TV, called Televisão Digital Terrestre (TDT), with a hertzian transmission, open and free, at least in the maiden promisses. In Brazil, the channels that used to profiteer the service of analogical broadcasting had their licenses restored to the new system, with the prompt up to 2016 to concretize the transition. The Rede Globo Television, Brazils main television station and fourth of the world, gradually, has made the transition in Brazilian capitals and leading cities and started to invest on the implantation of the necessary services to the tecnology of transmission. This work intend to identify the principal decisions taken by Globo in order to be, by the economical, marketing, administrative, artistic, techno-aesthetic and others points of view, in the digitalization enviroment. The group of these strategies is analyzed here based on the instruments of the Political Economy of Communication, line of research in which is located this research. | en |
