Smart TVs haven’t exactly set the premium TV market on fire, but the one area where they have grabbed telly watchers’ attention has been in providing catch-up TV opportunities. Sony’s just announced that by mid-year it’ll add Channel 10 to its lineup on compatible Bravia TVs.
One of the biggest problems with the Foxtel Download service that launched last year was that it only worked on 32-bit Windows machines, which meant Mac users and 64-bit geeks missed out. Austar have learnt that lesson, launching their Austar Anywhere download service as a browser-based solution to online video.
Looks like Channel 9 has finally awoken from its stupor in regards to online video and launched Fixplay, an online video portal aimed at taking on Yahoo!7 Plus and ABC iView.
