The offer ARD Plus is, as the name says, an additional offer that cannot be financed from the normal broadcasting fee. It offers series and films that are not allowed to be in the media library for a long time (the time of provision is limited by law). Therefore, the proceeds from the broadcasting fee were only purchased by the authors in accordance with licenses.

In order to be able to offer the series and films in ARD Plus on a variety of wishes from the audience, the corresponding rights must be re-acquired by the ARD. They may not be financed by the broadcasting fee. So you can only offer it through a free subscription. However, it is significantly cheaper than that of private providers because no new productions are offered here and no profit has to be made.

Then people who want to have digital pay for nothing.

Why – if they pay the plus package and want to see it they don’t pay for free.

If the extra money from the GEZ was illegally diverted, all would have to pay for it for free.

That’s why it’s okay

Because it is an additional offer that the countries are not responsible for and therefore cannot be financed with the broadcasting contribution.

First of all, the normal broadcasting fee must be paid for each apartment regardless of whether you actually use anything. This will only finance the normal programme. If you need something special then you have to pay extra for it. Your case is not because the one who looks ARD Plus is looking at normal ör programs. Besides, no one can check if you don’t use the normal program.

Why should this be financed by the public?

It would only be unnecessarily burdening the general public.

Those who want to have this service should of course pay extra for it.

The mediatics of public law

Otherwise, there is also service such as Save.tv that make more for their money
