Terra.com is launching a 2.0 version of its online video and TV platform. During its initial 18 months, Terra TV became a favorite source for Hispanic users seeking online video content. As a result of the popularity in online World Cup 2006 coverage, the content and site visits have grown steadily each month. Today, Terra TV announces the launch of its new platform, with new technology and a wider variety of online video content.
Terra TV has become a major player when it comes to online entertainment channels for Hispanics. It currently has a catalog of more than 10,000 videos on demand including News, Sports, Music, Movies, Autos and Fashion. Additionally, a strategic partnership with Azteca America provides Terra TV with 140 videos per week from Azteca’s programming. Another important online video source for Terra TV evolved through a partnership with Jump TV that provides live access to unlimited international programming 24/7. And to top it off, Terra TV News, which broadcasts from the Terra studios, offers two live daily newscasts focusing on U.S. and Latin American current events and breaking news.
