Fetch TV seeks to hit 1m subscribers and challenge Telstra TV with launch of Mini device

IPTV platform Fetch TV has signalled it intends to reach the one million subscribers in the next few years on the back of launching its new, lower price-point streaming device the Mini, which is aimed at challenging Telstra’s TV product.

“We are definitely experiencing ‘hockey stick’ growth,” said Lorson. “We continue to fly past milestones – having passed the 400,000 subscribers mark, and are now on track to hit 600,000 by the end of the year.

“We won’t be satisfied until we reach the one million mark, which we believe is imminently achievable in the medium term.”
