The Arris Market platform will add Net2TV Corp.’s streaming television service, Portico TV, to its OTT content library beginning early next year.
Arris Market is an operator customisable HTML environment that works with the Arris Whole Home Solution to give operators flexibility in controlling the content as well as the look and feel on the Arris STBs.
“Net2TV furthers the variety of programming our operators can offer, giving them a competitive advantage in vying for the consumers’ business,” said Ron Miller, vice president, Product Management, Consumer Solutions, Arris.
“Net2TV’s Portico TV broadens the content mix of existing Whole Home Solution deployments, offering subscribers access to a variety of engaging, on-demand content from leading program providers.”
Net2TV’s Portico TV currently offers 18 on-demand, full-length programmes including Better Homes and Gardens, Southern Living, Saveur, Cooking Light, World Eats, Inside Golf, Cycle World, Sports Illustrated, Field & Stream, A Closer Look with the AP, Newsy in 30, The Week in Time, Poeple This Week, Celeb TV, and Popular Science. All shows are updated weekly with the exception of news programmes, which are updated daily.
“Arris is a leader in delivering the content that consumers want, whenever and wherever they want it,” said Tom Morgan, president and CEO of Net2TV Corp.
“Our streaming, special-interest programming helps Arris give consumers even more content choices from popular brands that they know and love.”
