More than 90 million songs, covering all popular genres and artists, have been available on RTL+ Musik since August. For RTL Deutschland, the new service marks another milestone in the expansion of RTL+ into a fully comprehensive cross-media entertainment offering. RTL+ Musik was enabled through a partnership exclusive to the German market with Deezer, one of the world’s leading music streaming services. Beyond the extensive range of RTL+ video content, RTL+ Musik gives users access to millions of songs, more than 100 radio streams, and more than 5,000 playlists curated by music experts for every mood and every style of music.

In November, RTL+ expanded its offering to include another popular media genre: podcasts. To this end, the program of RTL Deutschland’s podcast platform Audio Now was integrated into the free version of the RTL+ Musik app. At the same time, the selection was expanded to include numerous exclusive formats. From the latest news to exciting true-crime stories and informative reports and the latest gossip from the world of celebrities, RTL+ users can now choose from thousands of podcasts, including more than 200 original RTL Deutschland productions. Since the beginning of 2023, users have also been able to stream the complete audio book catalog of the music streaming service Deezer, with around 90,000 titles from the range of well-known publishers such as Argon, Hörbuch Hamburg and Lübbe Audio.

Exciting RTL originals like “Mocro Maffia” from the Netherlands and “Sisi” from Germany; popular US series including “Into the Badlands” and “Hell on Wheels”; local show successes like the talent show “X-Stage” and the comedy show “Showder Klub” – all of these can be found on a single platform in Hungary since November: RTL+, RTL Hungary’s new streaming service, has been the country’s largest local streaming platform from day one. RTL+ offers Hungarian viewers a varied mix of internationally popular films, series and locally produced formats as well as exclusive content that is otherwise available on the streaming services RTL+ in Germany and Videoland in the Netherlands. To mark its 25th anniversary, RTL Hungary is also adopting RTL’s new brand identity – an important milestone on the way to a unified, visual world.
