Sky Italia to begin streaming services over Telecom Italia network

Telecom ItaliaTelecom Italia and Sky Italia are today expected to unveil their joint offering, whereby Sky’s services will be made available online via Telecom Italia’s network. 

Telecom Italia has reportedly committed to distribute about 120,000 TV decoders each year to support the service, to be called TIM Sky.

The move follows an agreement stuck between the pair last October. The full range of Sky’s services are to be made available via the Telecom Italia high-speed network, which provides connections at speeds of 30Mbps and above.

Sky will use the agreement to target homes that are unable to receive its offerings via satellite dishes.
