  • Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN) is planning a smart television set and its own TV service, according to London's Telegraph.
  • The set is being confidentially tested by DTG, which maintains technical standards in the UK's digital terrestrial broadcasts, according to the report. It's being built by a set of Chinese manufacturers including Huawei.
  • The set, as you might expect, would have a Freeview tuner along with Prime Video and the Alexa voice assistant along for the ride.
  • Meanwhile, "multiple" sources in broadcast say fees Amazon offered to join a TV service were significantly below market rate. The behemoth had little traction trying to attract channels like the BBC to an expanded Prime Video offering before.
  • UK TV rivals: Sky (OTCPK:SKYAY), Virgin Media (NASDAQ:LBTYA).
