RTL launches RTL+Musik app in Germany for paying subscribers of RTL+ powered by Deezer. Subscribers will now have access to 90 million tracks, more than 5000 curated playlists, and a user-friendly interface with key music streaming features. The music streaming service is a critical component in the expansion of RTL+ into a cross-media entertainment offering.
Matthias Dang, Co-CEO RTL Deutschland said, “The German streaming market is growing. But with more and more offers, the market is also becoming more confusing for users. We are therefore convinced that the variety of content, simplicity and price will be the decisive success factors in the streaming market. On RTL+, users can now access an extensive and top-class range of videos and music with a subscription – and at an unbeatable low price. We are thus starting the expansion of RTL+ into a comprehensive entertainment experience.”
Stephan Schäfer, Co-CEO RTL Deutschland: “After video, music is the most popular content category in the streaming sector. We are therefore very pleased that we were able to win Deezer as a partner and are now launching the RTL+ music app on the market. We will continue to expand RTL+ successively, which will clearly distinguish it from the competition in the growth market of streaming.”
Deezer and RTL have worked closely together in developing RTL+ Musik, ensuring a seamless integration, giving access to one of the largest music catalogues in the world, including creative Deezer Originals such as InVersions 90s, as well as an intuitive user experience.
Jeronimo Folgueira, CEO, Deezer said, “It is exciting to see the first results of this major partnership, and we are looking forward to being a part of the continued growth of RTL+, giving millions of German consumers access to one of the world’s most innovative, and recognized music streaming services. Building successful partnerships is a key part of our strategy, and we are proud to support RTL Deutschland in providing unbeatable and unique entertainment experiences on RTL+.”
RTL+ Musik will be available as part of the RTL+ Max subscription plan in Germany.
