There is enough choice out there now it can make your head spin.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!But don’t worry. Telstra has you covered with a new gadget that even your grandma could run.
Telstra TV is a ridiculously simple to use set-top box that gives users access to a mind-boggling array of fresh and award-winning content through services such as Presto, Netflix and soon after launch Stan. When your friends start raving about shows like Better Call Saul and Orange Is The New Black now you’ll know what they’re talking about.
Customers can also access the latest blockbuster movies and TV shows using BigPond Movies, or to choose to catch up on shows they’ve missed on TV through SBS on Demand, Plus7 and 9Jumpin.
YouTube, Red Bull TV, Awesomeness TV, Wall Street Journal, to name just a few, are also right there at your finger-tips.
“The powerful combination of our world-class networks and quality, differentiated content, and ease of use give our customers an entertainment experience that is truly world class,” says Joe Pollard, Telstra’s chief marketing officer and group executive media.
All you need to get started is a Telstra Broadband connection and a TV with a HDMI input. You simply then plug in the supplied cable, run a brief set-up process, pick the app you want [Presto etc] and you’re away laughing, or crying if that’s your preferred genre.
Of course you’ll need a subscription too but to sweeten the deal, Telstra is throwing in three months of free Presto and Stan, and a $15 BigPond Movies gift voucher to anyone who buys the $109 box before Christmas.
What’s more, all BigPond Movies and Presto streaming is unmetered, which means you won’t make a dent in your monthly data allowance.
Telstra TV is available to buy from October 27 in Telstra stores nationally, online or by calling 132200. Customers can also complete an expression of interest form now at Telstra
