Cogeco Quebec adds tasty new on-demand content; more HD channels


MONTREAL – Cogeco Cable has added travel and cooking content from Canal Evasion and Zeste to its on-demand lineup in Quebec.

"Our customers are real fans of the shows these channels offer, but sometimes their schedules just don’t allow them to tune in right at broadcast time, and they’d like to have more flexibility”, said VP of marketing and strategic planning, Ron Perrotta, in the announcement. “We’ve been wanting to give them control over their television experience – free of charge. That’s what we had in mind when we signed this agreement."

Cogeco’s digital TV customers in Quebec with access/who subscribe to the Evasion and Zeste channels now have free access to 40 hours of previously broadcast content.

In other company news, Cogeco’s HD television customers may now watch Musique Plus HD, Musimax HD and Super Ecran2 HD.  The addition of the three HD channels comes at no additional cost for customers who already subscribe to the standard versions of the channels.
