Quickflix survives with $1.3m US sale

The $1.3 million sale of struggling streaming service Quickflix has been approved at a creditors meeting on Tuesday.

Struggling streaming service Quickflix will live on after its creditors approved a $1.3 million sale to US-based technology company Karma Media Holdings.

The sale of Quickflix, which had its shares suspended from the ASX in August 2015 and went into administration in April, was approved at a creditors meeting on Tuesday - hours after the closure of rival streaming platform Presto was announced.

Quickflix, whose assets include its streaming platform and library of DVDs, will retain 24 employees.
