Spincast TV is excited to announce it has informally secured the first local broadcast station to join the Spincast Network. Formal agreements are still in the works for the unnamed station however the station produced programming content will air through the Spincast Network, giving their popular locally produced shows a global audience. With this agreement, Spincast paves the way for local broadcasters worldwide who produce quality local news and information programming, to access a worldwide market normally beyond their reach.
Today’s traditional media entertainment market removes viewer choice to content, regardless of the source, even with the highly promoted “skinny bundle”. The viewer has no alternative than to accept what is forced upon them by network programming executives. While Spincast does curate for broadcast quality, we do away with that traditional “greenlighting” decision. By airing all professionally produced content available from around the globe, Spincast places the ability to decide what to watch were it should be – in the viewer’s eyes. Content success will be determined only by the quality of the product and the desire of the masses to want it. And since our model is founded on providing programming of every genre thus appealing to every viewer, as opposed to a limited 24/7 lineup which is typical of traditional OTA and even new media OTT Broadcasters, the availability of thousands more programs reduces if not eliminates churn. The viewer stays within the Spincast Network.
