Eight Viasat channels are now available throughout Ukraine for all Megogo subscribers in the ‘basic’ package. From 2015 the channels will be provided on a pay basis.

The new Megogo offer will include the pay-TV movies from the movie channel brand, TV1000 – which includes the channels TV1000, TV1000 Russian Kino, TV1000 Action and TV1000 Comedy – as well as Viasat History, Viasat Explore and Viasat Nature.

Andrey Burenok, country manager of Viasat Ukraine LLC, commented: “There has been a clear growth in OTT pay-TV distribution in Ukraine. MEGOGO are innovators and igniters in terms of user experience and marketing approach. We believe that there is a considerable potential for Pay-TV channels in interactive TV, which gives us not only new business opportunities, but also ideas of delivering best entertainment experience to the customer. We look forward to deliver best content experience to most of Megogo subscribers.”
