Wallet-friendly streaming service Philo has inked a distribution agreement with QVC Group that involves its two flagship shopping channels.
Starting this week, streamers can watch live programming from QVC and HSN through the Philo app. The channels are available to those with a subscription to Philo’s $28 per month offering, and those who opt for Philo’s free service.
QVC offers live shopping 21 hours per day, and includes special events and the “Today’s Special Value” at midnight Eastern Time each day. HSN is the original Home Shopping Network, and offers shoppable programming that is personality-driven.
In addition to QVC and HSN, Philo has also added three more channels to its free streaming tier, including LatiNation, which offers more than 1,000 hours of award-winning content in English and Spanish. Marathon channels focused on Cirque du Soleil and Dog Whisperer are now available as well.
The five channels join a growing line-up of more than 110 free, ad-supported content streams available through Philo without a subscription, and more than 70 premium-level pay TV networks like Comedy Central, MTV, VH1, A&E, the History Channel, Nickelodeon, AMC Network and BET that are available as part of Philo’s $28 per month plan. A subscription to Philo also includes access to the ad-supported tier of AMC Plus without any extra charge, and streamers can add Starz, MGM Plus and a bundle of other movie networks for separate fees.
