HD programming from ProSiebenSat.1 group available to Sky viewers in Free TV via HD+

Munich, 11 April 2011. In the future, satellite TV viewers will be able to enjoy Free TV HD programming from the ProSiebenSat.1 group via a Sky HD receiver. HD programming should be available starting this summer. High definition means that compared to previous quality, television images will now have a much higher resolution and incredible detail. In early 2010, the ProSiebenSat.1 Group began offering programming on three HD TV stations - SAT.1 HD, ProSieben HD, and kabel eins HD - through HD+. At the end of last year, high definition programming on TV station sixx HD was added to the lineup. The HD+ package currently includes programming from eight TV stations. HD+ is available via the HD receiver from Sky, via an HD+ receiver, or on full HD or HD-ready flat-screen TVs with a CI+ module. Christoph Bellmer, head of New TV for the ProSiebenSat.1 Group: "HD programming represents a huge leap in quality for viewers. We are happy that Sky satellite customers can now enjoy our incredible high resolution HD programming." maxdome press contact: Jasmin Mittenzwei
