[mythtvnz] Prime on freeview from tomorrow

[Steven Ellis]

PRESS RELEASE: Sunday 18th August, 2009
Prime Now Available on Freeview Satellite® And Freeview |HD®
platforms
Freeview Limited and SKY Television announce that an agreement has  
been reached
regarding Prime Television being made available on Freeview satellite®  
and
Freeview|HD® platforms from Monday 17th August, 2009.

Having launched a little over two years ago, the availability of Prime  
on Freeview now
brings the total number of channels to 13 on Freeview satellite® and  
12 on Freeview|HD®.
This is yet another compelling reason for Kiwis to switch from  
analogue TV to free-to-air
digital TV.

More than a quarter of a million homes have already done so, as was  
signalled by
Freeview in July 2009.

Freeview was created to provide consumer choice in digital TV access  
and this latest
exciting development means New Zealanders can now choose to watch all  
national
free-to-air channels in digital quality.

􏰀All you need is a Freeview approved digital receiver and your  
existing TV and you can
enjoy Prime􏰁s programmes in digital quality for free􏰂 says Sam  
Irvine, General Manager,
Freeview.

Current Prime viewers may also be able to take advantage of their UHF  
aerials which
could provide them with access to the Freeview |HD® platform. All  
viewers need to do is
to visit www.freeviewnz.tv to see if they are in a Freeview |HD®  
coverage area.
