Rogers beta launch of Live TV on tablets

Rogers Communications has announced the beta launch of its ‘Rogers Live TV’ application which streams live TV channels on iPad tablet computers, allowing its pay-TV channel subscribers to view real-time broadcast programmes from anywhere in the home via Wi-Fi. The beta launch in Ontario initially offers 20 streamed iPad channels to customers of Rogers’ Hi-Speed Internet cable broadband with a ‘MyRogers’ account. The Live TV app will officially launch in early 2012, and a version for Android tablets will be available soon.
