From September, all customers of New Digi TV can choose to watch via satellite or via the internet over a set-top-box or mobile device. New Digi TV is thus the first TV operator in Czech Republic to offer its content in two ways.The internet broadcasting will offer more HD channels. The operator plans to launch 40 HD channels by the end of September. Customers can choose the Basic package and premium packages Sport, Extra and HBO; or the complete offer Maxi. The internet service will also offer digital TV functions such as replay, archive, time shift and recording. Internet TV will be available on up to four devices simultaneously.
