The VOD streaming service Wuaki.tv will begin offering 4K UHD movies from December 1.
Although they will initially be available in Germany and France, the company is in talks to bring the 4K catalogue to the other countries it is present in – Spain and the UK – in the near future.
Wuaki.tv has just launched in Germany and plans to expand to a further 11 countries by the end of next year.
Commenting on the 4K launch, Jordi Miró, CTO of Wuaki.tv, said: “More and more of our customers are beginning to demand movies in 4K, as TVs with the technology become commonplace in the home.
“We expect 4K will become increasingly popular towards the end of the year and into 2015, as consumers in Europe buy new TVs around Christmas time, upgrade to smart TVs, and 4K prices begin to drop as more devices come to the market.
“We’ll be ready for this when it happens so, as soon as a 4K TV is plugged in for the first time, everyone will have access to a quality catalogue of on-demand 4K content from Wuaki.tv.”
