‘Telly’ is a free dual-screen TV powered by ads, includes free Android TV dongle

For many, TV has once again become free on the back of ad-supported services and, now, one brand is hoping to take that a step further. “Telly,” a product from the co-founder of Pluto TV, is a dual-screen TV that is completely free because it shows you ads constantly. “Telly” is a 4K HDR television that has a 55-inch display, a built-in webcam (with privacy shutter), and a built-in soundbar. It’s really a complete home theater in one, and it’s all “sold” for free. The device is subsidized entirely on the back of advertising that appears not just during breaks in programming, but constantly on a smaller secondary display that’s found underneath the soundbar. That secondary display’s primary purpose is [...]

Telstra set to roll out new fetch TV offering after termination of Roku box contract

Telstra is set to roll out Fetch TV to millions of their customers as a replacement to the Roku Telstra TV which has according to many observers been a dismal failure for the big Telco who has had several attempts at trying to deliver a content service, since the early days of ‘BigPond’. Despite owning 35% of Foxtel Telstra management chose to acquire a 51% stake in Fetch TV, which is an aggregator of content as opposed to a creator of content similar to Foxtel. According to Fetch executives the launch will kick off shortly with Telstra customers set to be given access to a box that has recently undergone a major software update.

Norwegians paying more than ever for TV and streaming

The average amount paid by Norwegian households for TV and streaming content has risen to a record NOK 602 per month, according to a new report from the Nordic consultancy Mediavision. The figure represents an increase of 3% on the same period last year. Mediavision says the increase can be attributed to an insatiable demand for SVOD services, rather than general price increases. As in other parts of the Nordic region, operator packages or bundles, are helping to increase demand. Across the Nordic region, Norway holds the record for the average number of SVOD subscriptions per household. “Households’ appetite for media, and in particular streaming, remains high”, says Fredrik Liljeqvist, senior analyst at Mediavision. “We see this in all the [...]

DAZN soars in Spain

DAZN’s media rights strategy has fuelled continued growth and seen it become the 10th most-watched streaming video service in Spain for the first time. According to the latest Consumer research from Ampere Analysis. It is also in 11th place in Italy, where it holds exclusive rights to the majority of games for the flagship football league, Serie A.
