Article Abstract:
According to a report by media analysts at Numis Securities, RDF Media and Shed Productions are among the independent producers that are overpriced. It may be recalled that the new terms of trade under Communications Act and the BBC's Window of Creative Competition were to give openings of additional 25% to these producers.
