Great news for Sky customers.

Sky and Netflix have announced that they have a brand new partnership which means that Sky TV customers will be able to get Netflix as part of their subscription. The Netflix app will become integrated into the Sky Q plat, and the programmes from the streaming site will be promoted alongside Sky content. Customers will be able to seamlessly access Netflix content in the Sky Q menu, plus quickly find their favourite Netflix programmes including the use of Sky Q’s search and voice search functionality. Existing Netflix customers will be able to easily migrate their account to the new Sky TV bundle, or sign into the Netflix app using their existing account details. Commenting on the partnership, Jeremy Darroch of Sky has said:

“The exciting new features coming to Sky Q will enable Sky customers to access even more of the best entertainment delivered over the best product platform. By placing Sky and Netflix content side-by-side, along with programmes from the likes of HBO, Showtime, Fox and Disney, we are making the entertainment experience even easier and simpler for our customers. Our recent announcements mean we will extend our leadership in delivering customers the best viewing and user experience in Europe.”
