Deezer, the global music streaming service, is now available in the Metrological App Library, joining 300 other pre-integrated apps and making the service available on set-top boxes for Pay TV operators globally. “Working with Metrological enables us to help millions of households around the world access Deezer through their TVs and is a key element in our strategy to grow our global reach with Tier 1 providers,” declares Laurence Miall-d’Aout, Chief Commercial Officer at Deezer.
Jeroen Ghijsen, CEO of Metrological, says, “The Lightning-based Deezer app was built to provide the optimal music experience on TV. Now, our global operator customer base can seamlessly access Deezer’s extensive catalogue of songs, playlists, podcasts and more from the comfort of their living room.”
The version of Deezer in the Metrological App Library was developed in the open and lightweight Lightning app development language and Software Development Kit. “This SDK is tailor-built for developing high quality UX and browser-based TV apps with great, native like, performance,” Metrological says. “Lightning optimises the user experience for high-performance apps across next-gen, as well as memory constrained legacy devices.”
With a Deezer premium subscription, the Deezer music streaming app provides listeners with access to an audio catalogue of more than 73 million songs, podcasts and radio stations. Deezer is free, with a subscription then unlocking premium features.
Miall-d’Aout adds: “We want all our users to enjoy simple, highly relevant and personalised content no matter what platform they prefer to use. Deezer helps companies improve customer satisfaction and boost long term ARPU.”
