VOD content provider SPI has revealed that three of its channels will be featured on the recently launched multichannel, live and linear video streaming platform from BitTorrent.
Film Box 21 June 2016The BitTorrent Live app spans news, sports, music, tech, and youth culture and will now include FAST&FUNBOX HD, FIGHTBOX HD and FILMBOX ART HOUSE. The span of programming will encompass extreme sports, from car racing and motocross to snowboarding and skateboarding; multiple combat sports disciplines such as kickboxing and MMA; world cinema masterpieces by such prominent directors as Kurosawa, Fellini and Hitchock.
BitTorrent Live has built its business by assuring large audiences that they can view live video with sub ten-second latency and without the need for an expensive CDN or pre-provisioning. This, it says, allows an online video stream to remain as scalable as traditional over-the-air TV.
“We are excited to be part of the BitTorrent Live’s initial launch and look forward to a long and prosperous relationship,” said Stacey Sobel, SPI International executive vice president.
