FilmOn.com Brings Network Television to PCs, Smart Phones and Tablets, Legally

Apparently I missed this one yesterday so I’ll post it today! FilmOn Air is a little gadget that attaches to your phone and lets you watch and even record television on your phone. Price is $99.95 for the attachment but you can get it for free when you subscribe to their service for $149.95 per year. The device is going to be compatible with pretty much everything like phones, Macs, Tablet and PCs. I’m not sure if I’d want to pay $150 per year to watch TV while on the go, but then again I work from home so I don’t go many places often. Price would be about $12.50 per month so that’s a lot cheaper than cable and you’ll be getting 120 HD channels and some others as well.

 

FilmOn Labs, a Division of FilmOn.com PLC (www.FilmOn.com), the World’s first Internet based HD Virtual Cable TV Service, today announced that starting in February 2012, the Company will be shipping the FilmOn AIR for free, to all its Yearly US based Subscribers, so they can watch local Network Television on their Computers and Mobile Devices.

“FilmOn has licensed over 120 HD online television channels and has even launched its own College Sports and Live Soccer Channels but the challenge has been in legally bringing Major Network programming to our lineup whilst respecting the Network’s traditional business models.”

“In 2010 FilmOn ended up in an ongoing legal battle with all four of the Major Networks CBS, NBC, ABC and FOX, over FilmOn’s right to carry their signals over the Internet. The case is ongoing and FilmOn expects to settle the dispute this year,” said Alki David, CEO and Founder of FilmOn.

Mr. David continued, “FilmOn has licensed over 120 HD online television channels and has even launched its own College Sports and Live Soccer Channels but the challenge has been in legally bringing Major Network programming to our lineup whilst respecting the Network’s traditional business models.”
