Free catch-up digital television service Freeview Australia has unveiled its new Freeview Plus service with new features and a fresh look and feel.

Free digital television service Freeview has introduced a new feature to support Google Chromecast, delivering one-stop free-to-air TV for both streaming and catch-up through a smartphone or tablet.

Australian TV viewers streamed 1.2 billion minutes of television programmes throughout March, according to a newly published report.

The Freeview free digital TV service is claiming strong growth in the Australian market with household penetration of its service reaching the 20% mark this year to compare favourably with mature overseas markets.

It is free-to-air (FTV) TV on a smartphone, but not as we know it as digital rights management, content licensing controls, and Telco data charges may impair the experience.

Free digital television service, Freeview, has certified its eighth major TV manufacturer to offer its FreeviewPlus catch up services in the Australian market.

FreeviewPlus is here, described as the ‘most important advances in free-to-air television in this country since digital TV’.
