Zattoo to stream 4+ in Switzerland

Switzerland-based online TV service provider Zattoo has signed a deal with Swiss commercial broadcaster 3 Plus Group to broadcast its 4+ channel over the web in the country.

The recently launched 4+ channel, which went live in October, broadcasts movies – particularly action, fantasy, thriller and comedy titles. It also airs US series in German and documentary series.

The news comes a day after Zattoo said it would also stream linear RTL Group channels over the web in Germany by the middle of the year.

Zattoo said it will live-stream programmes from the RTL, VOX, n-tv, RTL Nitro, Super RTL and RTL II networks.

Zattoo is headquartered in Zurich and is now active in seven European cities, where it offers 200 channels – including 55 in Germany. Users have the choice between ad-supported or subscription viewing models and can access the service from computers, mobiles, tablets, connected TVs and games consoles.
