Google TV takes on Roku with over 800 free TV channels
Starting today, Google TV is adding Free Ad-Supported Streaming Television channels from, Plex and Haystack News to its existing FAST content from Pluto TV. In addition, Google is adding “built-in channels from Google TV that you can watch without even downloading or launching an app.” The company says the service now aggregates over 800 free channels.
FAST is the industry term for ad-supported “linear streaming content,” meaning it’s broadcast at specific times like traditional television. Already like Roku, FAST channels turn streaming into an experience akin to channel-surfing in the old days — further proving that live TV streaming has essentially become cable sent through a different pipe.. Additionally, it includes news content from NBC, ABC, CBS and Fox. It also has international programming in more than 10 languages, including Spanish, Japanese and Hindi. In addition, the programming is organized in an updated TV guide, which Google says makes browsing easier and faster.
