Oracle also lost their licence at the end of 1992, to be replaced by Teletext Ltd. It was ironic as originally there wasn't to be a teletext service after 1992, but Oracle fought for the right to bid for it, and then lost the licence anyway.
Why wasn’t there going to be a teletext service after 1992? I’d have thought around that time, teletext would have been at the height of its popularity, with any notion of digital services to replace it still years away. It seems like an odd plan. Or were they going to use the bandwidth for something else?
