MONTREAL – Stingray Digital said today it is making its Galaxie Digital Music Service available in the U.S. market.
Galaxie is 50 uninterrupted and commercial-free digital music channels delivered by cable, satellite or IPTV directly to consumers’ homes.
"Stingray Digital is already an established provider of music-related VOD content to U.S. multi-channel operators through the brands The Karaoke Channel and Concert TV. We are now expanding our music services with the Galaxie music channels for operators who are seeking an alternative source for digital music programming," said Eric Boyko, president of Stingray Digital.
"Galaxie is already an established digital music service offered through television service providers in several countries. We are pleased to now be providing this service to an even broader market on telco TV and cable platforms across the U.S.”
Launched over 13 years ago by the CBC, Galaxie serves more than 8 million households in North America and elsewhere on digital cable, DTH and IPTV television packages.
Galaxie is being delivered on the Avail-TVN platform, and can be received by cable and IPTV operators using common satellite receiving equipment. The service is already being received by several IPTV and cable operators throughout the US, including members of NRTC (National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative), other content aggregators and several additional multi-channel operators across the country.
