PITTSBURGH, March 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- WhereverTV
Broadcasting Corp. (OTC Pink: TVTV), a leader in delivering over
the top (OTT) subscription television services to a variety of
devices including ConnectedTVs, streaming media players,
smartphones and TabletPCs, today announced the upcoming launch of
its expanded ArabicTV service offering, which will include more
than 25 of the most popular channels from the Middle East.
"Our customers have spoken and we listened very carefully to
their content requests," said TVTV's CEO, Mark Cavicchia. "The Arabic speaking population
is one of the fastest growing segments in North America, with more than 4 million people
living in the USA alone.
When you add in the Arabic community of approximately 25
million living in Latin America,
you have a representative and influential group of people who are
eagerly looking for a stable and reliable in-language television
service wherever they are in the world."
Mr. Cavicchia continued, "In addition to offering the most
popular channel from Morocco, 2M
Maroc, the Company is excited to be adding leading channels from
Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Qatar, Saudi
Arabia, Syria, Tunisia, and the United Arab Emirates. We will follow this
launch with the addition of at least one new Arabic channel every
month for the remainder of 2013."
The new ArabicTV service will be available via the Company's
WhereverTV application, currently available on GoogleTV and Android
Smartphones and TabletPCs, and is expected to be available on Apple
devices later this month.
"The fact that more than 1.3 million Android devices are
activated every day gives us tremendous reach in to the growing
number of Arabic speaking residents throughout the Americas,"
stated Mr. Cavicchia, who also added, "once our iPhone and iPad
applications are available later this month, we will have even
greater reach into this important segment of the population through
two of the most popular connected device platforms in the
world."
