TalkTalk to bring a new set-top box (From October 2021, by netgem)


 
(Sep 29, 2021)

From October, TalkTalk will partner with Netgem to bring a new set-top box and selection of channels to its customers!

Unlike Sky Q, Netgem doesn’t rely on a satellite dish, but instead simple plugs into your broadband connection.

Since Netgem streams everything over your internet connection, the telly box won’t be available to those with slower broadband plans from TalkTalk.

  1. Le rapport annuel 2021 de TalkTalk Telecom Group Limited, montre que sa base de clients (fibre et haut débit) était en baisse depuis 2 ans ! C'est peut-être pour cela que Netgem apparaît maintenant sur TalkTalk ! Parce que Netgem fait ses preuves sur d'autres FAI, ce qui aide à augmenter la base de clients, au lieu de la diminuer !

    (Sep 29, 2021) "Si vous connaissez la marque Netgem, c'est probablement parce que la société de télé alimentée par Internet travaille déjà avec un certain nombre de fournisseurs de haut débit, notamment Pure Telecom et Community Fibre. Netgem compte quelque 175 chaînes – toutes diffusées sur Internet – dont BBC Alba, Virgin One, Crime + Investigation, History, National Geographic et MTV, pour n'en nommer que quelques-unes."

    Troubled UK ISP Origin Broadband Move Customers to TalkTalk

    ISPreview.co.uk that all of their customer lines are being migrated on to TalkTalk’s platform (previously they used a mix of platforms), who are indirectly also Origin’s new owner.

    The latest development is that the ownership of Origin Broadband has now swapped to a company called OB Telecom Limited, which is trading as Origin Broadband and was only incorporated in July 2021 (previously Origin was associated to Origin Broadband Ltd and Origin Broadband Services).

    A Spokesperson for Origin Broadband told ISPreview:

    “TalkTalk Group has acquired 100% of the share capital of the newly formed OB Telecom, which will continue to operate as a standalone business. Origin customers will see their services continue as normal and we’re looking forward to welcoming the OB Telecom team to TalkTalk.”

  3. Le rapport annuel 2021 de TalkTalk Telecom Group Limited, montre que sa base de clients (fibre et haut débit) était en baisse depuis 2 ans !
    C'est peut-être pour cela que Netgem apparaît maintenant sur TalkTalk !
    Parce que Netgem fait ses preuves sur d'autres FAI, ce qui aide à augmenter la base de clients, au lieu de la diminuer !


    Exemple : « Pure Telecom et Netgem TV annoncent un nouveau rapprochement TV » Paul Connell, PDG de Pure Telecom a déclaré : « Notre partenariat avec Netgem s'est avéré très fructueux, nous sommes ravis de lancer Pure TV en collaboration avec Netgem. La possibilité d'utiliser le décodeur 4K de Netgem garantira au public irlandais l'accès aux émissions de télévision et aux films les plus populaires de Pure TV.

  4. Actual service: TalkTalk TV

    Final verdict (May 10th 2021)

    .The good:
    Value for money
    Choice of add-ons
    Access to Sky Atlantic via NOW TV

    . The bad:
    Only Freeview channels as standard
    No option to record on the YouView box
    Only available with fibre broadband

    (May 10th 2021)
    With the removal of its TV Boosts, TalkTalk has now scaled its TV offering right back, and as a result it does not in any way attempt to compete with the impressive packages of Virgin Media, Sky or even BT when it comes to TV. Plus, with the requirement of fibre broadband for TalkTalk TV, customers who can only access standard broadband will be left out in the cold.

    However, if you can get fibre and are looking for a basic TV package with a box that enables access to the Freeview channels, then TalkTalk TV is a good bet and an affordable option. You can pause and rewind live channels, and the ability to add on one-month rolling streaming services such as NOW TV, Amazon Prime and Netflix is likely to tick all the boxes for the majority of households.

  7. Netgem box, déjà disponible chez TalkTalk UK.

    (at 15-10-2021)

    " New TalkTalk TV box, powered by Netgem TV I am trialling a new TalkTalk TV box. It has been very quick and easy to set up, taking about ten minutes in all. It is different from my old YouView box, much smaller and less obtrusive. I couldn't work out how to record so I visited the relevant TalkTalk help page and found the information I need to help me do so. All is clear now."

  9. (8 novembre 2021) "TalkTalk devient le premier grand fournisseur de services haut débit au Royaume-Uni à proposer un forfait fibre et Netflix sans avoir à payer plus pour un forfait TV supplémentaire."

    (8 novembre 2021)
    "Les ménages très occupés qui recherchent l'expérience de visionnage ultime peuvent passer à Netflix Premium pour seulement 4 £ supplémentaires par mois. Les clients qui effectuent une mise à niveau auront la possibilité de regarder du contenu sur quatre appareils en même temps, et en qualité vidéo 4K Ultra HD - c'est le package ultime pour les familles ayant des exigences différentes en matière de divertissement."

    Le streaming Ultra HD est disponible sur Netflix sur de nombreux appareils 4K. A talk talk, seule la netbox 4k UHD aurait cette possibilité, dans un futur proche ! (super pour Netgem)

  10. Voir l'exemple de la Finlande, avec Elisa TV :

    "L'intégration de Netflix dans la plateforme Netgem améliore la
    expérience pour les clients Elisa avec un accès direct au live et à la demande sans avoir à passer d'un service à un autre."

    => Il y a des avantages à talktalk pour intégrer Netflix dans la plateforme Netgem qui sera bientôt lancée !

    (Netflix était déjà sorti sur la plate-forme Netgem en 2015.
    dans les pays nordiques et en Amérique latine)

    Ainsi, l'intégration de netflix au Royaume-Uni ne dépend que de la stratégie des clients FAI.

    (July 8th 2015) “Netgem TV platform is trusted by all Hollywood studios, and major OTT brands such as BBC, YouTube or Sky TV. Netflix is a major addition,” said Joseph Haddad, CEO of Netgem. “This is in line with our strategy of becoming the video entertainment
    services provider of choice to fixed and mobile operators around the world. We are also the partner of content owners, extending their asset monetisation. We are proud that two innovative operators such as Totalplay and Elisa TV are integrating Netflix into their TV services with us.”
