Arte got funding for a year's experiment of making its programmes available via an app for countries in the EU outside France and Germany so it's now on quite a few smart TVs and streaming devices.

There's around 250 programmes with English subtitles and in HD covering the arts, popular culture, other cultures and concerts - BBC 4 type stuff really. Some are a bit staid but there's some more interestingly presented ones too. Have dipped into it quite a bit lately, though the navigation isn't great which makes it hard to see what is new.
