Narrowstep Inc., the TV on the Internet Company, has secured a one-year contract to broadcast Your Destiny TV, currently a live psychic channel on SKY, on the Internet using Narrowstep's unique Television Operating System (TelVOS
TM).
www.yourdestiny.tv is the UK's first live psychic TV channel on the Internet and features well known psychics, astrologers and clairvoyants and already broadcasts on the Sky platform. With eight million homes now on broadband this has the potential to reach more viewers than cable or satellite TV.
Narrowstep, who has been creating broadband TV channels for three years, was approached by Your Destiny TV to emulate its business model of driving viewer interaction through premium rate numbers and text messaging onto the Internet.
Joe Trainor, project manager for Narrowstep, said, "Your Destiny TV is a successful proposition on SKY and TV Commerce wanted to build on that success through the Internet. Narrowstep's business models support commercialization of content through Narrowstep's Television Operating System, TelVOS, so it was an ideal solution for them."
TV Commerce Chief Executive Vince Stanzione commented, "Viewers can now watch the popular Your Destiny TV channel on the Internet which results in near TV-quality mobile viewing worldwide at a fraction of the cost of launching a conventional satellite TV channel."
In order to broadcast over the broadband channel, Narrowstep takes a live satellite feed at its London studios and broadcasts live on www.yourdestiny.tv every day between 9 am and 6 pm. Outside of those hours, viewers can choose video-on-demand or watch the 24 x 7 rolling schedule part of Narrowstep's unique Television Operating System (TelVOS).
