The BBC has announced an extension of its deal with SFR across its satellite, DSL and Fibre offers. The award-winning international news and information channel is now available on SFR satellite neufbox TV offer (channel 221). Formerly included in the package le Bouquet Sélection, BBC World News became available last month on SFR’s neufbox and neufbox Evolution offers on ADSL and Fibre on channel 259. Following these deals, BBC World News 24/7 distribution will reach more than 16 million homes across France.

Yeah Yeah… 16 million homes… Wishful thinking…
It will reach those with enough bandwidth to carry the service… Unfortunately most SFR users (and I’m one) have just enough to carry the basic ADSL internet signal at 512 kbits/s
If it reaches 5 million homes, it’ll be a bit of a miracle…
