UPC Inks New HD Deal With Sky
A new deal between Sky and UPC will see 21 new HD channels available to Cork UPC customers.

The deal will see 19 Sky HD channels available through UPC for the first time, including Sky Sports 1 and 2, Sky Movies, Sky 1, Sky News, and more. UPC has also added ESPN America and Disney HD to its HD line-up.

Simon Kelehan, head of content at UPC, said: “The addition of a range of Sky’s HD channels together with ESPN HD and Disney HD means UPC customers can get really close to the sports and movie action in glorious high definition. We’re constantly seeking to add new services to make the UPC experience a really great one for our viewers and are very pleased to announce this enhanced deal with Sky.”

Sky’s commercial group director, Rob Webster, said the enhanced distribution deal with UPC formed part of Sky’s efforts to “distribute our channels as broadly as possible to widen our reach”.

All UPC HD customers will receive Sky 1, Sky News, Sky Living, Sky Sports News, Sky Arts 1, Sky Arts 2 in HD at no extra charge. UPC’s Sky Sports and Movie customers with a current HD subscription can upgrade for an extra €10 per month (an extra €15 per month for those without HD subscription).

Avand in vedere ca stirea este de pe un Site Irlandez, e clar ca va fi doar, sau cel putin momentan, doar in filiala Irlandeza a U.P.C.-ului.

~50 Euro pentru 2 Sky Sport-uri? N-as da atatia bani in viata mea pentru asa ceva!

Pentru 13 programe premium , eu zic ca merita atati bani  ,la nivelul de trai care il au ei.

Mai are upc pana sa ofere ceva peste rds!
Nu vad marea lovitura cu asa ceva!

Pai ce are R.C.S. peste U.P.C.?

Compresia  

+1! Plus lipsa de respect fata de abonat!

Chiar sunt curios cati abonati are U.P.C. in Irlanda. Dar este un pas important pentru ei introducerea canalelor Sky si ii felicit.

Observ ca in Irlanda au Discovery History! Stiam ca doar in Polonia este.

Nu uita ca acolo salariul minim pe economie este undeva pe la 1000 euro

La noi 156 de euro , deci nu se mai pune vorba de vreo diferenta  

e posibil sa apara sky si in alte tari unde si upc si sky au filiale.. de ex germania... insa in ro, ar fi putin cam greu...

Canalele erau exclusive pentru abonatii Sky Irlanda si acum sunt valabile si pe UPC Irlanda. E ca si cum am vedea Digisport si Digi 24 pe UPC Romania. Asa ca nu va faceti sperante.

.....asa o sa ajunga si RDS sa isi vanda canalele proprii, la concurenta peste cativa ani

Nu-i exclus... daca primesc un pret bun, ar fi chiar in interesul lor si poate in final, al abonatilor.
