The service was carried on the [[Austar]] and [[Optus Vision]] pay-TV networks between 1995 and 2002. Seven unsuccessfully pursued court action against competitors, seeking damages of $480 million, but lost the case and was described by the judge as exhibiting "more than a hint of hypocrisy" in regard to the issue of price-ramping of broadcast rights.<ref>{{cite AustLII|FCA|1062|2007|litigants=Seven Network Limited v News Limited |pinpoint=[162] and [393]-[398] per Sackville J |courtname=auto |date=27 July 2007}}.</ref>
