Presto’s strength in streaming has long been its movies, but equally its TV offerings have been somewhat meagre. That’s set to change with the approval of its joint venture deal with Seven West Media.
The deal’s been on the cards for quite some time now (hence this year’s launch), but it was pending ACCC approval for the joint venture, which sees Presto TV Pty Ltd become a 50/50 partnership between Foxtel and Seven West Media.
Meanwhile, it’s also being touted that Presto will switch on HD services for Quickflix subscribers,according to Televised Revolution. Last week, Quickflix announced plans to use Presto for its all-you-can-eat streaming options, rather than its own (more limited) range of content.
