HD PLUS GmbH has announced the restructuring of its "HD+ ToGo" service: Under the name "HD+ MultiScreen", as an extension of the "HD+" TV offer, it now enables around 100 HD channels to be streamed on up to three devices simultaneously: on the TV set in the living room as well as on a cell phone, tablet or - using Apple Airplay or Google Chromecast - on a second or third TV. With the login details for HD+ MultiScreen, HD+ customers can also log in directly on a TV set with HD+ IP and use one of the three streams there. According to the provider, HD+ MultiScreen can also be used in other EU countries.
According to the provider, the new offer also makes it possible to customize television. This includes being able to start a program from the beginning if it has already started. A pause function should be available by the end of June. An electronic program guide (EPG) for a quick overview of the programs on offer is also available, ad-free according to HD Plus.
Price reduction
The redesign is accompanied by a price reduction. The option now costs 3 instead of 5 euros per month. The basic HD+ subscription still costs 6 euros per month; this can be canceled monthly. HD+ MultiScreen can be added to the subscription at www.hd-plus.de. For the time being, HD+ MultiScreen will remain available in stores under the previous name with the "HD+ extension for 12 months including HD+ ToGo" for 95 euros. A new renewal voucher is to be introduced in the fall.
"HD+" is a pay TV package for satellite TV, but with "HD+ IP", HD Plus GmbH also offers real IPTV on televisions. For a long time, a suitable TV app was only available for Panasonic TVs, but since April Samsung TVs from model year 2021 can also receive HD+ via the internet. c't recently took a close look at HD+ IP as part of a comparative test of TV streaming providers.
