In September 2014, the Times Media Group aims to launch Vidi, a video-on-demand service. The company is responsible for a number of publications and services including The Sunday Times, Elle magazine (SA) and Nu Metro Cinemas.
Vidi will be available via subscription and subscribers will receive on-demand service providing TV series, movie rentals and recently released films via the internet.
The new online platform will allow users to stream content via a computer, Android or iOS device, using a recommended internet connection speed of 2Mbit/s for standard definition videos. Content will thus only be able to be viewed on television sets if they are connected to a device via High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI).
On 10 September, Times Media Group is set to reveal pricing details and other important information.
