MGM launches HD offering in Israel MIP NEWS: MGM Networks is launching a high-definition version of Israel's The MGM Channel – the company's third HD channel in the last 18 months. The company says it already reaches nearly every cable and satellite home across Israel in standard definition, and that the new HD version, which launches this month as part of the HD basic tier of Israeli DTH platform Yes, will be simulcast together with the existing SD channel. "As HD begins to roll out all over the world, MGM plans to be at the forefront of this compelling new medium," said Bruce Tuchman, MGM Networks' executive VP. "Alongside our HD channels in the US and in Europe, we plan to continue to aggressively expand our HD presence internationally, which is fuelled by the incomparable experience of viewing choice selections from the MGM library. "We are also grateful to Yes, Israel's DTH satellite platform, and Tel-Ad, one of Israel's leading channel providers, for their support and passion about this project, along with their many years of commitment to the MGM standard definition business." Last October, MGM launched MGM HD in the US, while the first HD launch for the company was its dedicated network for Poland in December 2006. Adam Benzine 8 Apr 2008 © C21 Media 2008
