At present subscribers in Australia and New Zealand have access to Quickflix streaming over internet capable TVs, Sony TVs, Blu-ray players, game consoles, PCs, Apple Macs, tablets and mobile phones.
The New Zealand launch was seized on by communications minister, Amy Adams, as vindication of her government's backing for a widespread FTTH rollout, the Ultra Fast Broadband network.
She said: "This is an example of the sort of innovate approaches I expect to see as UFB is rolled out around the country...Having Quickflix enter the market means customers will have access to content that suits them on demand. It offers services in a more flexible way than traditional subscription and free-to-air broadcasters we are familiar with."
