Netflix inks pact with Hathway, to offer video streaming via set-top box

Netflix

Cable broadband provider Hathway and online entertainment firm Netflix have tied up to provide consumers access to the latter’s movies through the Hathway set-top box. The set-top box will have a remote with a dedicated button to allow users to use Netflix by clicking on the button. Hathway subscribers will also be able to pay their Netflix subscription using their Hathway bill. This is the third distribution partnership that the American online entertainment firm has entered into this year. Earlier, it announced similar partnerships with DTH operator Tata Sky and Airtel. These, however, are yet to be implemented. The Hathway set-top box will be launched at an introductory price of Rs 2,999. All existing and new Hathway broadband consumers, who subscribe to Netflix and pay through their Hathway bill for their Netflix subscription, will receive this box for free.
