 AUCKLAND – New Zealand-based telco Telecom, in partnership with Hybrid Television Services,
the exclusive licensee of TiVo products in Australia and New Zealand, will deliver unmetered TiVo entertainment to New Zealand living rooms starting next month.The deal will allow Telecom broadband customers to not only download movies and shows to their TV with no impact to their monthly broadband data allowance, but also access all of the Freeview|HD channels. The TiVo media device allows viewers to pause and rewind live TV, record every episode in a series with the Season Pass feature, auto-record favourite actors’ movies using the WishList search and provide a safe-viewing environment for their children with TiVo KidZone. Telecom’s broadband will also offer unmetered games and information services as well as the 14-day on-screen guide and software updates within the TiVo. Alan Gourdie, CEO, Telecom Retail, said TiVo represents a revolution in the way Kiwis watch TV which offers “the freedom to watch what you want, when you want and enjoy top-rated movies on the TV without impacting your monthly broadband data allowance”. Robbee Minicola, CEO of Hybrid TV, added: “The partnership between Hybrid TV and Telecom is an outstanding result for the consumer. We are very pleased to have New Zealand’s largest telecommunications provider support our efforts in supplying unmetered broadband entertainment to the TiVo media device. “In addition to getting the best of free-to-air DTV, Telecom customers will have access to broadband entertainment which they will only pay for what they view instead of paying monthly subscription fees. “When we announced our plans to launch in New Zealand in March of this year, we were greeted with a high level of interest. We are confident that New Zealanders will enjoy the entertainment choices, convenience and value we will provide just in time for Christmas shopping,” said Minicola.
