“Sound and Vision” at Streema

Thursday, February 28th, 2013

As you may already know, last December we announced that we were “Connecting the World of Television Stations to Streema“. Today we want to show you some of the most popular TV Stations we have in our directory.

To start off, for News in the United States, we recommend tuning in to WABC-TV from New York, NY (ABC Network).

In case you want to watch Sports, check out Wilamette Valley Television from Salem, OR (America One Network).

And if you’re in more of an Entertainment mood, check out CBC Montreal from Canada (CBC Network).

Bear in mind that for now, we only have TV Stations for the United States, Canada and Mexico. We’re also only publishing the main channels for each TV Station, but we’ll be adding the rest in the future.

Hope you enjoy those stations and discover more of the world of Sound and Vision:

Stay tuned!

Connecting the World of Television Stations to Streema

Monday, December 31st, 2012

It’s no coincidence that the first music video shown on MTV in 1981 was a song called “Video Killed The Radio Star”, that there is a great band called “TV on the Radio”, and that many of the major radio stations also belong to the same media groups that own TV stations. There has always been bonding, comparison, even rivalry between the TV and radio and we cannot deny there is a connection between them. The two main broadcast media for the 20th Century are more related than one might think.

From the technical point of view, it’s true they transmit in different parts of the radio frequency spectrum (USA example), but on the human side, they share actors, producers and directors, and many of the roles played on TV are also played on radio. TV is about entertainment, news, sports, education, politics, culture… it’s not a surprise that radio has those same genres as well. And at the end of the day, TV is about connecting with people and radio is about connecting people. When we look at what we want to do at Streema, it’s connecting people.

We already have radio, so why not bring TV to Streema? Well, we thought it was a great idea and we did it! Starting January 1st, 2013, you’ll be able to watch TV on Streema. We’ll start with a few TV Stations from North America, but over the next few months we’ll be adding more from the rest of the world. Hope you enjoy this end-of-the year announcement! We know we will. :)

And given that that 2012 is coming to a close… Happy New Year and see you in 2013!

Stay tuned!
