YouTube has bitten the ‘live’ bullet . It’s launched ‘YouTube TV’. As it says, this is ‘live’ TV designed for the YouTube generation—those who want to watch what they want, when they want, how they want, without commitments.
The announcement was made on its official blog post.
Here’s what YouTube TV offers:
-
Live TV streaming from ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, ESPN, regional sports networks and dozens of popular cable networks. YouTube TV gives you the best of live TV, from must-see broadcast shows like “Empire,” “The Voice,” “The Big Bang Theory” and “Scandal,” to the live sports you want. YouTube TV includes major sports networks like ESPN and regional sports networks like Fox Sports Networks and Comcast SportsNet, so you can watch your favorite NBA or MLB teams. We’ve also partnered with local TV stations, so you’ll also get sports and local news based on where you live.
