Sky Deutschland Launches the Roku Powered Sky Online TV Box

Great news for streamers in Germany! Back in October, we announced a partnership with Sky Deutschland to bring the Roku streaming platform to the Sky Online TV Box through our *Roku Powered™ program.

We’re pleased to announce, the Sky Online TV Box is available today with a special offer for new and existing Sky Online and Snap customers in Germany. It enables Sky Online and Snap customers to stream their entertainment of choice in a fast and easy way to their TV.

On top of the Sky Online and Snap service customers can also select additional channels from the Sky Online TV Box Channel Store. There are various channels available at launch including Wall Street Journal Live, Vimeo, TuneIn Radio and special interest channels including FitnessMagazine and iFood.tv. Sky is planning to add more channels over time to the Channel Store.

The Sky Online TV Box can be ordered now by new and existing Sky Online and Snap customers for €49.90 at http://www.sky.de/tvbox.

*The Roku Powered program enables Pay TV service providers such as Sky to license the Roku streaming platform and gain access to a simple and intuitive user interface, ongoing software updates, a broad selection of streaming entertainment and low-cost streaming players. With the Roku Powered platform, Pay TV service providers can accelerate time to market, expand their reach, and reduce customer churn by delivering an innovative entertainment experience to customers.
