Access services are useless if you - don´t know that they exist- don´t know how to use them- can´t afford the equipment
User requirements include- programme information, EPG- use basic functions on your own- easy to use equipment, manuals, menus, remote- on and off - other users of same equipment
Accessibility, usability and information
