MagentaTV is Deutsche Telekom’s IPTV service, launched in 2017 as a replacement for the older Entertain TV. Subscribers get more than 100 German and international channels in HD and 4K, an in-house on-demand library called Megathek with productions from MegaNow and ARD Degeto, and the option to fold Netflix, Disney+ or RTL+ into a single Telekom bill. The Flex, Smart and MegaStream tiers differ in channel count, 4K availability and whether a dedicated set-top box is required.
