LG tellies to offer access to BigPond movies
LG Electronics Australia has confirmed that its latest range of flatscreen TVs will offer access to the BigPond Movies service from Australian telco Telstra.
LG's 2010 range of over 20 televisions will come equipped with the capability to directly access BigPond Movies and other content, delivered via the company's Netcast technology. Movies will be charged on a pay-per-view basis and can be played anytime within seven days, and then as many times as desired within a 24-hour or 48-hour viewing window.
“This is just the first step in bringing video to households over the Internet directly to TVs. No subscription, no PC required,” said William Cho, Managing Director of LG Electronics Australia. “We look forward to expanding our relationship in the coming months to make the most of BigPond TV’s emerging business through innovative LG devices.”
LG added that the BigPond service on its 2010 televisions will evolve to offer a range of linear TV channels as well at some point. The company is yet to schedule the launch of its 2010 range.
