Orange adds channels to pay TV line-up

French pay TV operator Orange has added a raft of new channels to its premium pay services.

The France Telecom-owned operator has added movie network Allocine and the Poker Channel to its service. It has also struck carriage deals with adult broadcasters Hustler TV and Colmax TV that will see these channels made available on its Adult package.

Meanwhile, it is also rebranding its Extra package, which will mean that 38 live channels and 10 video-on-demand channels will be unscrambled and available to all subscribers. These channels are a mix of general entertainment, youth, music and sports channels and will be available from September 16.
