The connection between streaming and TV is getting closer at Telekom

Skyshowtime was the first to enter into a reseller cooperation with Magyar Telekom in Hungary. The relatively young service provider (it was launched in Hungary only last February) is now the third major international SVOD provider that Telekom makes available to its customers in various package offers.

The Skyshowtime Standard subscription was added to the service provider’s offer in conjunction with the Telekom TV L and IPTV L linear subscriptions, somewhat confusingly at the same price as the bundle with Netflix and Max SVOD. With the price package that includes the SVOD subscription, the customer receives the Standard subscription, which costs HUF 2,799 per month if subscribed separately – by the way, Skyshowtime currently has a better promotional offer, which now offers Premium, which provides 4K resolution and a higher download limit, at half price, for 1999 per month fee package.

Subscribers to the package offer can also access two brand new SkyShowtime linear channels, SkyShowtime 1 and SkyShowtime 2.

This agreement with Skyshowtime follows the pattern of Max and its predecessor, HBO (GO) almost one-to-one. The relationship between telecommunications providers and streaming providers began many years ago with the provision of on-demand access to the content of HBO’s linear channels.

In 2020, Vodafone was the first in Hungary to acquire Netflix as part of a group-wide reseller agreement, and Telekom introduced Netflix distribution as part of its TV and mobile tariff packages in April this year.

In recent years, telecommunications providers offering linear TV content, but also mobile providers, have been putting more and more emphasis on providing access to the steadily growing and expanding on-demand content offer in addition to the slowly losing ground, i.e. the subscriber should enter into a contract with them regardless of whether , what kind of content you would like to watch on the big screen.

To this end, the companies are also trying to catch up with the technical background of the services, especially on the front-end side, so Telekom TV, for example, already displays streaming content in its offer, similar to the TV platform recently upgraded from Vodafone TV to One TV, which will soon be available to all 4iG TV customers. will serve you.
