TORONTO – Rogers’ Sportsnet announced today it has officially relaunched SN Now with more choice for fans and more content.
The relaunch, originally announced in August, includes a refreshed user interface as well as an enhanced technology foundation, which will “deliver the best fan experience, highest quality streaming, and most personalized viewing available anywhere in sports media,” a press release says.
“The richer, personalized user experience for SN Now is innovated by Deltatre, while the cloud-native streaming platform runs on Firstlight Media’s microservices architecture, together delivering improved video quality, reduced latency, and enhanced viewing features.”
In the future, new features and enhancements will be added including “stats, overlays, timeline markers, and betting integrations,” said Bart Yabsley, president of Sportsnet, in the press release.
SN Now is still available to linear TV subscribers who sign in with their credentials and will also be available through a 24/7 free tier as of Oct. 12, the NHL’s opening night.
