Fetch TV is rapidly becoming a one-stop shop for TV viewing after adding Presto to its subscription video on demand (SVOD) line up. Fetch now offers all three SVOD players in Australia, with Netflix and Stan having joined in the past 18 months.
Fetch TV has also secured a partnership with the Viacom channel Spike and will begin airing it on 1 July. The internet TV company will also add 9Now to complete the line-up for all of Australia's free-to-air channels in catch up.
The Seven and Foxtel-owned Presto will commence streaming on Fetch’s newest generation of set top boxes, Gen 3, from today, and will be introduced on Gen 2 players in early July.
"The addition of Presto is another great milestone for Fetch TV and our partners as we continue to add to our market leading one-stop entertainment experience,” Fetch TV CEO Scott Lorson says.
Presto has the streaming rights to a number of big name shows, including Empire, The Mindy Project, Mr Robot and Amy Schumer: Live at the Apollo.
Presto TV CEO Shaun James says having Presto available on Fetch TV is another way to offer the SVOD service to living rooms around the country.
“Through this partnership with Fetch TV, we are making it easy for all Australians to access Presto’s extensive entertainment library on the biggest screen in their house, with a simple click of their Fetch TV remote control,” he says.
