Broadband operator approached about distribution deal

PARIS — Stephane Richard, CEO of Orange, France’s leading broadband operator, confirmed in an interview with a Gallic radio last week that Netflix had approached with a potential deal for distribution.

“I think they want to launch in the fall (in France),” he said in the March 7 interview.

Richard disclosed Orange hadn’t signed anything yet, as it was “too premature.” He added Netflix was still considering different distribution routes.
