Anyone who signs up to VMedia Internet services can now get \u00a0VMedia TV \u00a0for free for six months.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVMedia is focused on providing Canadians with the lowest prices and the best features for TV, Internet and Home Phone services. We also believe that it is crucial to our business, and to Canadian culture, that we encourage the public to engage with live TV,\u201d said Alexei Tchernobrivets, CEO and co-founder of VMedia.\u00a0 \u201cWe hear a lot about cord-cutting and while the trend is not as dramatic as some think, nonetheless \u00a0it should be stopped and reversed. Live TV, especially high-quality network TV as provided by CTV, CBC, Global, CITY, ICI and TVA, is really the best entertainment value per dollar of any video platform out there. We want people to rediscover that truth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The new promo, which also features some of the lowest priced unlimited Internet packages in the market, lets anyone who switches to a VMedia Internet package try VMedia\u2019s <em>TheSkinny<\/em> TV package at no cost for six months, for a total value of nearly $110.\u00a0 Or they can select one of VMedia\u2019s other two entry packages and still get the savings. Each package is reduced by $17.95 per month, so <em>Basic<\/em>, regularly $29.95, with over a dozen additional specialty channels like TSN 1 to 5, YTV, E!, CTV NewsChannel, MuchMusic, and CP24(where available), is now $12.00 for six months. VMedia\u2019s\u00a0 most popular package, <em>Premium Basic<\/em>, with nearly 70 channels in all, including Sportsnet and SportsnetOne, CNN, AMC, A&amp;E, Showcase, NFL Network, MLBNetwork, Bravo, Discovery and many more, regularly $44.95, is now only $27.00.<\/p>\n<p>And unlike most promos in the market there is no obligation to continue past the free period.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVMedia \u00a0is committed to making \u00a0TV as affordable and accessible as possible,\u201d said George Burger, co-founder and a director of VMedia. \u201cThis is a great way to reach out to people who are looking for lower TV costs and better value or who have turned their backs on TV, and show them a real alternative.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cValentine\u2019s Day is a great time to launch this offer, because at VMedia we love live TV. It offers hundreds of hours of great original drama, comedy, news, kids programming and of course sports \u2013 think of it, if you had live TV recently you got to watch one of the greatest sporting events of all time, <strong><em>SuperBowl LI<\/em><\/strong>, for free!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Anyone who signs up for VMedia Internet can have the free TV service if they want it. If new customers do not have TV, they can now give it a try and see what they are \u00a0missing. If they already have a current TV provider, customers can still sample VMedia TV and compare value and features.<\/p>\n<p>VMedia TV can be watched with the VBox, VMedia\u2019s proprietary combined TV set top box\u00a0 and media player, or with Roku Players 2,3,4, Roku Stick and Roku-powered TV\u2019s.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>About VMedia<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>VMedia Inc., based in Toronto, Ontario, provides innovative TV, high-speed internet and home phone services, offering more choice and flexibility, unique features and lower prices than the major players.
