"Les solutions de set-top-box et de soundbox basées sur le logiciel Netgem proposeront toute la gamme des services Amazon Prime Video, a annoncé récemment la société.
Le partenariat avec Amazon Prime Video constitue une amélioration majeure d'une série de partenariats internationaux OTT et contenu linéaire que Netgem a obtenus pour son STB virtuel.
