ProSiebenSat.1 Signs a Comprehensive Multi-platform Agreement with Sony Deutschland for maxdome

Direct access to 45,000 titles via PlayStations in the future

maxdome to be available soon on all Sony web-enabled devices

Unterföhring, May 10, 2012 - The ProSiebenSat.1 Group is signing a future-oriented cooperative agreement for maxdome. Germany's largest online video library and Germany's favorite game console will soon join forces. Before the end of this year, maxdome will first be available on PlayStations, and then be integrated in Sony home entertainment devices, such as web-capable televisions, Blu-ray players, and the latest generation of home theater systems. This will make maxdome a new partner service as part of the Sony Entertainment Networks. With this agreement, maxdome is expanding its technical reach to more than 10 million devices and will be integrated in almost all new hybrid TV systems. At the same time, Sony Deutschland's customers will be able to enjoy even more entertainment and diverse programming in the future through direct access to more than 45,000 titles. In addition to a wide range of movies and series, customers will also find news specials, television shows, documentaries, and music and children's shows. Until it is implemented in the PlayStation 3, the maxdome TV interface will be designed to be even more user-friendly and easier to understand. The title selection, for example, will be easier to filter thanks to additional navigation layers, and detailed sorting genres will allow more customized searches. Multi-channel sound, subtitles, and an innovative approach to navigation are also being planned. Dr. Christian Wegner, Vice President of New Media and Diversification at ProSiebenSat.1: "On TV portals that offer our online video library, maxdome is already the most used application. We firmly believe that our attractive offer will also appeal to Sony Deutschland customers." Uwe Bassendowski, Managing Director at Sony Computer Entertainment Deutschland: "With this collaboration, maxdome and Sony Deutschland are redefining the future of entertainment. Our focus is on bringing our video-on-demand services to our home theater products and Germany's favorite game console in order to expand the platform into a true entertainment center in viewers' living rooms."

SEITENANFANG

Clemens Mulokozi & Dr. Martin Emele

"When children do sports, they speak one language."

“UKIMWI” is spelled out in capital letters on the ground of the dusty sports field in Bukoba, Tanzania. Ukimwi is Swahili, and it means AIDS. The children from the elementary school put the word together using lots of little wooden sticks.
