People who want to use their Blackberry Smartphones to watch full episodes of popular TV programs from leading networks can be able to do so with the launch of PrimeTime2Go premium mobile TV service.
The monthly subscription fee-based service will be available in early May via the BlackBerry App World storefront, and will enable consumers to download and watch full-length episodes of their favorite shows on-demand including NBC’s “The Office,” CBS’s “CSI,” MTV’s “The Hills,” a part of MTV Networks, and The CW’s “90210” anytime, anywhere.
QuickPlay will offer PrimeTime2Go in the US on the BlackBerry Bold and BlackBerry Curve 8900 smartphones, which are currently available to AT&T and T-Mobile customers. The service will allow customers to easily browse extensive catalogs of content and download selected programs to their smartphone in the background, thereby allowing them to use other services while shows are loading.
Following the download, subscribers will be able to watch their selected program on their schedule until the pre-determined viewing period expires. All selected content will be delivered over Wi-Fi which provides cost savings, since it will not impact the user’s data usage.
For added convenience, subscribers will have the ability to watch the TV shows offline. PrimeTime2Go will also provide capabilities that allow consumers to pause a program, exit the application and then resume viewing from where they left off upon re-entering the service.
PrimeTime2Go will be available in early May, as a $7.99 monthly subscription. To access the service, subscribers will need to visit BlackBerry App World storefront on their compatible smartphones, browse to the “Music and Video” category, select PrimeTime2Go, and then follow the instructions to download and install the application.
