Amazon integrates LGBTQ channel into Amazon Prime<\/h1>\n\"Amazon\"Amazon

 <\/p>\n

The time has recently come: Amazon Prime customers can now use OUTtv to get a LGBTQ<\/a> Obtain channel. If you want to use the channel, you have to pay just under 6 euros a month. For that you get queer content galore. (Alternatively to the Prime variant, the on-demand service \"OUTtv Pro\" can be used, according to the press release. Here, too, the corresponding content can be accessed via Smart TV, iOs and Android devices.<\/em>)<\/p>\n

Those - whether queer or not - who have been annoyed in the past that German television - despite \"Prince Charming\" and other relevant formats - could still be too \"straight\", may have found a welcome solution here. So far, OUTtv can be watched not only in Germany, but among others also in Great Britain<\/a>, in the Netherlands and in Spain.<\/p>\n

But: in the future, people in other countries should also enjoy the come<\/a>to obtain the corresponding content.<\/p>\n

What is behind OUTtv?<\/h2>\n

The programme offered on the OUTtv Channel appears to be colourful and diverse. Among other things, it is about fashion, lifestyle, LGBTQ topics and music.<\/p>\n

According to its own statement, the channel is not only aimed at queers, but \"at all open-minded people\". Among other things, it relies on internationally known TV programmes and reality shows from the most diverse areas. The classic Scene<\/a> is sometimes more, sometimes less represented here. Or in other words: non-queer viewers should also feel comfortable here because of the openness and the different content.<\/p>\n

The above-mentioned addition \"to all open-minded people\" seems to be programme: Obviously, no channel was created here that is exclusively aimed at LGBTQs, but at everyone who is tolerant and wants to think outside the box.<\/p>\n

By the way: OUTtv can already look back on a long history, albeit in a different form. In 2001, the project was still running under \"PrideVision TV<\/em>\" and in English. A little later it was also broadcast in German and now via Amazon Prime.<\/p>\n\"Amazon

A \"gay TV station\" and its statement<\/h3>\n

The media landscape has certainly become a little more \"colourful\" and \"queer\" over time. Who could have imagined in 1980, for example, that a gay man would be looking for his better half on TV?<\/p>\n

And yet: despite all the openness, which is, among other things, also Straight<\/a>-viewers is welcomed, there are always people who are offended by same-sex content.<\/p>\n

Although the likelihood of OUTtv reaching precisely these \"anti-LGBTQ viewers\" is low, the fact that Amazon Prime is now integrating this content underscores that the current media landscape is changing much faster than it did a few years ago.<\/p>\n

Let's hope that the programme and the channel will be well received. After all, this would also show that there are many people today who love to immerse themselves in a new world and possibly get to know their scene even better.<\/p>\n\"Out

A look at the \"programme guide\" - what programmes does OUTtv have up its sleeve?<\/h4>\n

The OUTtv offer will certainly expand and change in the coming months. However, among other things, highlights such as \"Olly Alexander - Growing Up Gay<\/em>\", \"Mister World<\/em>\", \"RuPaul's Drag<\/a> Race All Stars<\/em>\", \"Drag Race Thailand<\/em>\" and \"Drag S.O.S<\/em>\" current.<\/p>\n

In future, queer entertainment will be supplemented with documentaries such as \"Oh Dior\" and \"Crazy for Madonna\".<\/p>\n

To what extent OUTtv will then meet the personal taste of the target group remains to be seen. What is certain is that the channel - according to the press release, homepage and presentation - is so colourful that it should provide the right content for many people.<\/p>\n
