Introducing the worlds first free multi-channel mobile TV service – FreeBe TV. The service delivers video streams over 2.5G GPRS to WAP-enabled handsets. Yes, that include Symbian OS handsets.
By targeting primarily 18-36 year olds with smartphones, FreeBe TV have already seen 3,000 people sign-up to FreeBe TV in just the last 2 weeks from around the world.
And they go even further. FreeBe TV’s immediate plans include adding new handsets and new, innovative and exciting content to gather a huge, global, network-agnostic community of mobile TV viewers. Once they achieve tens of thousands of viewers, FreeBe TV will introduce advertising-supported content going-forward. The idea is to make a FreeBe TV a global mobile TV phenomenon.
The product is there and the business model is sound. At the moment FreeBe TV has 11 channels of content on their US and a UK website, with German, French, Spanish and Italian language versions coming in the future.
