NBC Universal And MobiTV Announce Mobile TV On Demand Service


NBC Universal has announced they will be providing on-demand mobile TV content in conjunction with MobiTV for the US market. Primetime NBC shows like The Office and Heroes will soon be available on your mobile phone. A slew of other NBCU channels, including USA, Bravo, SCI FI, Telemundo and mun2, will offer ad-supported programming. MobiTV will also have several ad-supported on demand shows for free including Friday Night Lights. Service will be $1.99 per primetime show for a 24 hour viewing period. No word on who the provider will be, but service is expected to hit the ground running sometime in Q2. My prayers have been answered: Hayden Panettiere on my phone whenever I want.
