Flextech Television has struck a deal with Buena Vista International
Television to offer a rental-on-demand service.
Users can download one episode of programming from a 24 hour window for an
expected 99p which will allow them to watch it within 7 days. Other dramas to
download include 'Grey's Anatomy', 'Charmed' and 'Will & Grace'.
The network will also make available episodes of its own programming
including 'Most Haunted', 'Sin Cities' and 'Real Football Factories' available
to rent buy for £2.50 an episode.
"Broadband video-on-demand is another great enhancement to our
service, which will offer real choice for our consumers. It will let them
schedule their own entertainment when it suits them."
"All our channels pride themselves on generating strong affinity with
their audiences, and this new service can only help to build on those
relationships." |
| Lisa Opie, managing director of Flextech Television |
The service, which will be available through the livingtv.co.uk and
bravo.co.uk channel websites.
But with most people either owning a PVR or Sky+ (and with all the re-runs!) why
would anyone want to pay to schedule an episode which they might miss?
