Showtime to launch On Broadband gaming network
Showtime is expanding their horizons with this recent move. The CBS Corporation owned cable channel is going to work with game publisher Broadband Libraries LLC to form “On Broadband”. What is it? Think of GameTap and you’ll probably have an idea what On Broadband would be about.
Anyhow, the company will be offering a private label game service for cable TV companies and DSL broadband providers come the second quarter of this year. They will be offering a collection of games that can be downloaded or played online, some will be free and some will be available for purchase.
A subscription option will also be available. Aside from that, game-related content such as reviews and cheats and tricks will also be offered. In parting, Peter Von Schlossberg of Broadband Libraries has this to say:
Cable operators have tried to populate their home pages with any sort of entertainment they can…We believe (the service) should be in their name and be delivered to them and passed along to consumers as they like.
