Magine TV takes the top spot as the best streaming provider in Germany

This week, Stiftung Warentest, a trusted German consumer organization that investigates and compares good and services, announced our consumer service, Magine TV, emerged victorious in a comparison of live TV streaming services in Germany. The comparison evaluated Magine TV, Zattoo, Waipu, TV Spielfilm Live, and Coufunk as well as the free online offerings from German broadcasters ARD and ZDF on factors like price-performance ratio, availability of stations, ease of use, picture and sound quality as well as data privacy. After testing, Stiftung Warentest concluded Magine TV to be the best provider of live TV streaming services in Germany for both free and pay TV streaming.

Magine TV was actually founded at our HQ in Sweden in 2012. In 2015, we expanded into the German market with Magine TV Deutschland. Magine TV Deutschland offers the same great service with free and pay TV packages that don’t tie users into long-term binding contracts. In fact, our commitment to provide users with great content was also mentioned in the Stiftung Warentest report, as Magine TV was the only provider in the test to offer stations from German broadcasters ProSiebenSat.1 and the RTL Group.

We continue to run our consumer services, Magine TV and Plejmo, to this day. We’ve even expanded our operations in recent years. Leveraging our technology, platform, and experience we launched Magine Pro, which provides cost-efficient and scalable live, linear TV and Video-On-Demand services for our B2B partners. Our templated OTT solutions offer the same user-friendly interface and experience as Magine TV (now powered by the Magine Pro platform) as the template was built based on our learnings. As a result, all Magine Pro partner solutions share in the success of Magine TV.

Take a closer look at the Magine TV service:

Although templated, all Magine Pro solutions are customisable. Our partners can add additional features and services and brand their platform with their own colour palettes and logos. We also provide all the tools and support they need to successfully launch, manage and grow their own OTT business.
