Private launches its content for Video-on-Demand on the IPTV platform Club Internet in France as part of the "Club Internet 3" Triple-Play offer.
Based on the MSTV platform, Club Internet 3 offers more than 150 TV channels and a library of 2,500 VOD/SVOD titles, including news, movies and
documentaries. This innovative and user friendly service is HD and DTT ready and features: instant channel switching, catch-up-TV (first in
France!), pause and rewind function of live transmissions, PVR and PVR Web (first in France!), picture-in-picture and one universal remote control for all TV equipment.
With this agreement Private takes another step forward in its aggressive strategy to have its content accessible to more than 90% of
French IPTV subscribers before the end of 2007. The agreement provides access to hundreds of titles from Private's extensive proprietary movie
library and includes both new releases as well as classic blockbuster titles.
The Company is of the firm belief that IPTV in Europe will be the TV delivery platform of choice for the Pay-TV consumer. This is based on its
superior functionality which provides added value, the convergence of telephony, Internet access and digital television into Triple-Play and the
general perception among media research firms and industry leaders in the media and telecom sectors.
