The prices on the LiderTV are higher: from 07: 00 to 18:00 - 80 manats per second, and from 18:00 to 24:00 - 160 manat. On Sundays, this amount increased to 100-200 manats per second.

The ITV which is funded from the budget cannot demand 50 AZN per second. This means – 180.000 per hour. The same applies to prices on other channels. These prices are not applicable to the nation-wide referendum, and have a commercial nature. They express not social, but commercial interests, said Mammadli. -05В-
