New Horizons for Music on TV
Craze TV is our innovation framework to explore and develop the future of music on Digital TV.
We've already started with 2 projects:
- Sky Interactive UK Music Channel -> Download Screenshots PPT (15mb. MS Powerpoint)
- IPTV Music Portals
|
With a market reach of 25m daily viewers in the UK, The Craze Sky Channel is the first ever Interactive TV Music Portal (based on the Skynet Web-tv service), offering a youth-targeted mix of quality music downloads & news, and enabling a true fast impulse purchase destination on the TV. The Craze Sky Channel will also be the first in the world to introduce the "MMS & Buy" service for content downloading using a cameraphone. Users can take a picture of the artists directly from the TV, send as MMS or make a video call, and immediately receive the downloads to their mobile. Watch a Live Demo here. Coming up also is a full Shopping Cart service, which will offer a compelling selection of music related merchandising, enriching the user experience into browsing a full Music Mall.

Stay tuned for screen previews from this new exciting service. Left: The Craze IPTV Portal in action - users can download content at any time while watching a video clip with a single click.
