Seven teams with Optus for video streaming deal
Seven has confirmed a new partnership with Optus, which will see the telco’s mobile subscribers receive four months of video on demand streaming “data free”.
It comes ahead of Seven’s coverage of the Australian Open Tennis, the Olympic Winter Games and the Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast, which will run from January to April on the network’s different sports apps.
Are there going to be ads with the Seven service? Widely known in market that Optus wants to do more free streaming for its customers but couldn’t find a solution with the ads that all commercial free services have (and didn’t want to do this gratis). Hopefully this “deal” is more “significant” for Seven than it was for EPL. I can feel the Telstra dollars moving towards Nine and Ten at this moment…
