German cable operator Unitymedia will offer its customers programmes from the free-to-air channels of commercial broadcast group Mediengruppe RTL Deutschland within its video-on-demand (VOD) service TV archive free-of-charge.
The agreement signed between both companies covers the channels RTL, VOX, RTL II, Super RTL, n-tv and RTL Nitro. The programmes such as shows, series, documentaries, news and reports will be offered in sections like RTL Shop or VOX Shop up to seven days after their broadcast.
The RTL and VOX sections will launch this year, expanding the cable operator’s VOD platform which currently already contains 35,000 titles.
