(SinoCast Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)QINGDAO, Jan 25, 2006 (SinoCast via COMTEX) --Four digital TV operators simultaneously started offering services in Qingdao City of eastern China's Shandong Province on January 18.

The four digital TV service providers are China Central Digital Television Media (CDM), the DTV subsidiary under CCTV, TOPV, CHC and SiTV under Shanghai Media Group (SMG).
