RiC TV joins Zappn in Austria [UPDATE]

September 24, 2019 08.00 Europe/London By Jörn Krieger

German family channel RiC TV is now available on Zappn, the streaming app of ProSiebenSat.1 Puls 4 in Austria.

This brings the total number of live-streams onboard the OTT platform to 17 TV channels.

The offer is expected to increase significantly when Zappn is merged with German streaming portal Joyn, operated by ProSiebenSat.1 and Discovery. According to the German media group, this is currently planned for 2020.

“Classic linear television remains popular. Easy access will further stimulate television consumption through streaming platforms such as Zappn,” said Armin Schnell, executive vice president of RiC TV parent company Your Family Entertainment.

“As RiC TV has been part of Joyn’s portfolio from the very beginning, we are very pleased that we now also cooperate with the ProsiebenSat.1 Puls 4 in Austria.”

[UPDATE, 17.00 CET] Further additions as live-streams on Zappn are Servus TV, SchauTV and cineplexx TV.
