Online TV platform Livestation is to allow users to add their own choice of television to the streamer’s chosen package of international news channels. Viewers can add TV, radio or even webcams that can then be viewed within the Livestation environment.
“We plan to work closely with the owners of channels that will prove the most popular in order to bring them on to the Livestation platform so that viewers will be able to enjoy the higher-quality and interactive features that the full Livestation experience offers to our current partner broadcasters,” explained Livestation CEO Matteo Berlucchi. “”For broadcasters, it will provide an excellent opportunity to assess viewer demand so that they can then respond as they see fit. We will then work with the broadcasters to maximise the new found opportunities,” he said.
Already included are Al Jazeera, BBC World News, Bloomberg Television, EuroNews (English, French, Italian and Spanish), France 24, i>Tele, Russia Today and BBC World Service radio.
Livestation is currently available only as a Windows XP/Vista download, but has plans for versions for Mac and Linux users.
