Cogeco adds Mlle, Cinepop to HD lineup


MONTREAL – Cogeco Cable added two new French-language channels to its high definition lineup Thursday.

TVA-owned Mlle is a channel designed for Quebec women passionate about style, beauty and wellness, while Astral’s Cinepop airs films from the 1950s through today, uncut and with no commercial breaks.

The SD version of Mlle is available now to all of Cogeco’s digital TV customers in Quebec, and Mlle HD and Cinepop HD will be offered to “most”, the company said.

"Mlle HD and Cinepop HD further enhance the French-language HD line-up our customers in Quebec know and love”, said Ron Perrotta, VP of marketing and strategic planning, in the announcement. “Because our customers are the focus of everything we do, we make every effort we can to bring them the very best in HD programming by selecting the most exciting and relevant content on the market. And the growth we’re seeing in HD service is a perfect indication of how much our customers appreciate the variety, quality and choice we give them."
