The Nine Network’s content was temporarily unavailable in regional areas of Western Australia after negotiations with West Digital Television regarding an affiliation deal stalled. WDT is a joint venture between WIN Corporation and Prime Media Group, and it had proposed to pay an affiliation fee of less than 20 per cent of its revenue. Nine in turn is believed to have sought a percentage of revenue based on audience share. WDT began broadcasting Nine’s signal nearly two days after the negotiations’ deadline of 30 June had lapsed.
