Canal Plus is signing up 1,000 subscribers a day in Italy and plans to reach the break-even point by the end of 2000. Canal Plus-backed Telepi_ CEO Michel Thoulouze has revealed the latest company figures, which also show that the digital satellite service D+ is currently being received by 700,000 subscribers, while the total number of subscribers (including analogue) has reached the 1,230,000 mark. Thoulouze said that the recent launch of adult movies on PPV service Palco had helped bring in new subscribers, but there are no plans to extend adult programming beyond weekends.
