In addition to the basic offer, which remains free of charge and comprises 74 channels, the following channels are now available in High Quality (HiQ):
SF 1, SF zwei, SF info, Pro7, RTL, Sat.1, ARD, ZDF, Eurosport, VOX, TSR1, TRS2, TF1, M6, France 2, France 3, TSI1, TSI2, Canale 5, Rai Uno.
However, receiving HiQ channels also requires a larger bandwidth (at least 2 Mbps is recommended) and a powerful computer. In a press release issued on Thursday, Zattoo therefore recommends trying out the free HiQ test channel before subscribing to the additional service. The HiQ offer is free of charge for Swisscom VDSL customers.
Zattoo's basic product has so far been well received by 800,000 users in Switzerland. According to the press release, Francesco Vass (Head of Free & Pay TV) stated that the new HiQ offer is the first step towards addressing specific viewer needs. Zattoo plans to expand its premium offering in the near future with additional channels that will be available for a fee.
