Web TV provider Livestation has put together a package for customers of the Jalipo platform that closed this week. As first reported yesterday in Broadband TV News, new owners ROK Entertainment have closed Jalipo, saying the portal was in need of “significant unplanned investment”.
Livestation offers high-quality TV and radio streaming and already carries a number of channels that were available to Jalipo subscribers. The difference is that Livestation is working towards an advertising model with pay-per-view elements being introduced later on.
