Broadband TV News: Dutch viewers get two Viaplay linear channels

Story from Broadband TV News:

Viaplay will next month launch two linear channels into the Dutch market.

The channels, Viaplay TV and Viaplay TV+, will initially be available through television providers Delta and Odido.

Last year, Viaplay ran a pilot where it rebranded SBS9 as Viaplay TV, and showed a mix of content from both Viaplay and SBS6. From March 14, SBS9 will return in its own right, and the two Viaplay channels will go it alone.

The free-to-air Viaplay TV will broadcast live football and Formula 1 practice sessions, while Viaplay TV+ will be a €16.99 per month premium channel featuring all Formula One sessions, major Premier League matches and the World Darts Championship.
