What is "prosieben"

ProSieben ( IPA: /pʁozibən/, "sieben" is German for seven) is a commercial television station in Germany. It is largely distributed by cable and satellite and to a lesser extent DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting – Terrestrial). It began operations on January 1, 1989. Since 2003 the station, part ProSiebenSat.1 Media, is owned by a group of investors led by Haim Saban. ProSieben is Germany's second largest privately owned television company. Although ProSieben produces some of its programming itself, it also airs many American imports. On May 3, 2012, ProSieben launched a payTV channel called ProSieben Fun. A third channel called ProSieben Maxx started broadcasting on September 3, 2013.

There are three different variants of the channel: ProSieben (for Germany), ProSieben Austria (for Austria) and ProSieben Schweiz (for Switzerland). The main difference is that they have different adverts and news for each target country.

The channel uses an English slogan: "We love to entertain you."

ProSieben broadcasts from the Astra 1L and 3A satellites and is uplinked by SES Platform Services.
