CTV and Bell Mobility have announced a partnership to offer Bell customers the ability to watch CTV content on their mobile via “Bell Live TV”. The cost to activate this is $10 per month.
If you remember Bell pushed the Live TV hard when the Beijing Summer Olympics were on, but only about 1,000 people actually signed up. However, you can now watch MuchMusic, MTV, TSN, The Comedy Network, FashionTelevision Channel, etalk, CTV Newsnet, BNN and RDS on your mobile (if it’s video enabled).
Stephan Argent, Vice-President, CTV Digital Media Group said “Extending our relationship with Bell allows us to offer even more unprecedented mobile video content. As mobile devices continue to grow in popularity, CTV is making sure we provide Canadians with the most up-to-date and in demand content. This deal delivers on our promise that consumers can access our programming across multiple platforms, and reaffirms CTV’s commitment to providing Canadians with what they want, when they want it.”
Adel Bazerghi, Senior Vice President of Products at Bell Mobility said “CTV joins a growing roster of mobile TV and video services, including a broad selection of news, weather, entertainment, sports channels, that take full advantage of our high-speed mobile data service and our premium selection of 3G smartphones.”
