Harald Kräuter, ORF Director of Technology and Digitisation said: “As part of our digitisation offensive on the way to becoming a multimedia platform, we want to offer our content to the audience on all relevant distribution channels in the best technical quality, with the highest usability and with the most modern features with the ORF TVthek.”
Michael Radelsberger, Vice President Commercial Sky Austria added: “We are consistently expanding our partnership with ORF and are pleased to be able to continue to make the heavily used ORF TVthek conveniently and easily available to Sky customers. I would like to express my sincere thanks to my colleagues at ORF for the pleasant cooperation.”
