Sky confirms Spanish OTT plans by end of 2017
Sky is to move ahead with a direct to consumer service for the Spanish market. The long-anticipated OTT platform will launch before the end of 2017.
“We intend to launch a simple and affordable OTT service in Spain, the Eurozone’s fourth largest economy and the market which has the largest free-to-air (FTA) headroom in Europe outside of our existing footprint,” CEO Jeremy Darroch confirmed to analysts Thursday.
The move comes as Sky plans to roll out a satellite-free version of its Sky Q box to Italy, Germany and Austria.
The Sky Q box is now in 1 million UK homes with 22 per cent of new subscribers opting for the £12 monthly fee that brings additional multiscreen functionality.
