EE UK’s Pay TV Platform Launches Support for Paramount+

Broadband ISP and mobile operator EE (BT) has today announced that customers of their pay TV service have just gained access to the new Paramount+ streaming App via their TV Box Pro and TV Box Mini hardware (set-top-boxes). This offers access to a wide selection of blockbuster movies and TV shows etc. But there’s a catch for those with a Premium plan.

In addition to the ‘Standard’ (£7.99 per month) Paramount+ plan, customers can also sign-up to the recently introduced ‘Basic (with ads)’ (£4.99) and ‘Premium’ (£10.99) subscription tiers through EE TV. But EE notes that Paramount+ ‘Premium’ plan subscribers will initially “receive content in ‘Standard’ plan capabilities at launch” (i.e. other ‘Premium’ plan audio and video benefits, like 4K, HDR and Dolby Vision, will become available to EE TV customers “at a later date“).

Paramount+ also includes content produced by the production company’s various associated brands and studios, including CBS, Comedy Central, MTV Entertainment Studios, Nickelodeon, Paramount Pictures and SHOWTIME®.

Alistair Wilson, EE’s Partnerships Director, said:

“It’s our ambition to provide EE TV customers with a truly extensive variety of the very best TV, film, and sport options – and the addition of Paramount+ adds a whole new catalogue of exciting content for our customers to stream. The blockbusters, new originals and hit shows offered by Paramount+ will be a welcome addition for customers and easily accessible for anyone with EE TV.”
