Simplestream has announced Blue Ant Media will use its award-winning VOD-in-a-Box platform to power its new premium wildlife and nature 4K Subscription Video On Demand (SVOD) service, Love Nature 4K.
It is the first time a 4K video service has been designed, built and launched by Simplestream
The new service draws on an extensive library of 4K natural history content, which includes video from over 40 locations around the world.
“Partnering with Simplestream has enabled us to reach our wildlife and nature fans on new platforms, and get our rich programming in front of new audiences in international markets – a major advantage and exciting development for us,” said Greg Kampanis, Senior Vice President & General Manager, Blue Ant Media Global Networks. “ Simplestream’s success in designing, building and delivering similar video services for top-tier content owners, distributors and operators enabled us to successfully launch Love Nature 4K in a very short time-frame.”
Love Nature supports download capability for offline viewing, Chromecast integration and universal search.
“When taking content to new markets, it’s really important for providers to be able to localise their content to each market. This was a priority for the Love Nature 4K launch, so our ability to meet this important requirement and be in a position to roll out the services on time and within budget was another reason why they turned to us,” added Dan Finch, Chief Commercial Officer of Simplestream. “
Love Nature is available globally outside of the UK and US on iOS and Android mobile and tablet, Amazon Fire, Apple TV, Roku, Samsung and the web.
