Offering unmatched choice and flexibility, VMedia&#8217;s unique, online UChoose Store features over 60 terrific channels available as standalones, and over 40 that can be selected as part of a \u2018pick a pack\u2019. With UChoose, TV subscribers can build their own channel packages and personalize their own TV channel line-up.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Canadians are entitled to pay only for those channels they want to watch,&#8221; said George Burger, a Director of VMedia Inc. &#8220;Combined with the exceptional value of our Premium Basic and Basic packages, the UChoose Store is a great solution for subscribers who want to customize their entertainment options, and save money at the same time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>With the UChoose Store, consumers can now assemble packages that include popular channels like Showcase, History, Food Network, FX\/Canada, Slice, MTV2 and NHL Network, and in doing so reduce the per channel cost of channels in the package. As standalone channels, most of the channels in The UChoose Store are $2.25\/month each, and for those channels which can be selected in &#8216;pick a packs&#8217;, the cost can be reduced to as little as $1.50 per channel.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have put virtually all the channels that our agreements with the networks allow into the UChoose Store,&#8221; said Burger, &#8220;which is over half of VMedia\u2019s specialty channel lineup.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Subscribers can select and switch UChoose channels online at any time with VMedia&#8217;s unique proprietary interface and advanced shopping cart capability. Easy clicks to purchase channels through the subscriber&#8217;s \u2018My Account&#8217; portal and the channel is up on the TV screen immediately.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The development of the UChoose Store platform involved many months of hard work,&#8221; said Alexei Tchernobrivets, Chief Executive Officer of VMedia Inc. &#8220;New opportunities to further improve the technology kept coming up, and we couldn&#8217;t resist implementing them. We are very happy with the result, and we hope our subscribers will be too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>VMedia Inc., based in Toronto, Ontario, is an innovative IPTV and internet service, and the only alternative to Rogers and Bell broadcasting distribution services available throughout Ontario.
