There is a wide recognition that the transition of broadcast regulation toward a market-based competition by way of deregulation is inevitable in a multi-channel environment which is grounded in digital technology and the convergence of broadcast and telecommunications. Both a horizontal regulatory framework and a balanced development of the media are the subject of many concerns. This article analyzes four issues concerning two matters in depth and explores alternative ways of broadcast regulation. The following summaries are the major findings of the study. First, a horizontal framework of regulation is unavoidable because the approach is technology-friendly. But the division into platform, content, and network areas is desirable for enhancing public broadcasting service. It is also necessary to devise a legal system in order not to encroach the public service function. Second, a monopolistic and oligopolistic phenomenon formed by over-the-air broadcasting is groundless, at least in terms of the positive law, and its symptoms gradually tend to weaken. The widespread belief of the positive relationships between the predominating status of terrestrial broadcast and the unbalanced development of the media is unfounded with regard to the growth of non-terrestrial, local broadcasting and independent production companies. Based upon the results of this study, it points out some problems of broadcast regulation by dividing its forms into entry, ownership, and content levels. Finally, the article suggests some directions and working rules for the reform of broadcast regulation.
