To get more subscribers to use advanced services, Verizon (NYSE: VZ) keeps pumping its mobile TV offering with additional content. Now, they are teaming up with Qualcomm (NSDQ: QCOM)-owned MediaFLO to bring live, full-length college football games from a variety of broadcast and cable networks to their V CAST Mobile TV service.
Apparently, the carrier scheduled to air more than 75 live match-ups, as well as up to 20 bowl on CBS Mobile, ESPN Mobile TV, FOX Mobile and NBC 2Go.
“Notre Dame fans can catch seven Fighting Irish games on NBC 2Go and two on ESPN Mobile TV, while highlights of the 2007 season on CBS Mobile will include up to 15 Southeastern Conference games, the Sun Bowl and Gator Bowl, and up to 38 additional college football games covered through CSTV on CBS Mobile. FOX Sports Mobile, meanwhile, is the destination of choice for mobile Big 12 fans.”
If you’re a college football fan, this is certainly your cup of tea. Hope you’re on Verizon and have — or plan to get — a V CAST Mobile TV capable handset…
