Bloomberg Adds Live Channel for News 24/7 - Android TV News

EVERYONE subscribed to this sub should install this app, whether you're interested in the content or not. This is the first major media company to adopt live channel support, we need to show Bloomberg and the rest of the media that the demand is there.

Live Channels got updated too! Only 1 of my shields reflects it but now theres an option to "find more apps that have sources" and upon clicking it, it opens the play store and shows you the current (few) apps that have sources for Live Channels.

Also, classic case of better late than never. Bloomberg was one of the participants first announced last Spring.

Still waiting on:

  • TED
  • Vevo
  • Huffington Post
  • AOL
  • Zattoo

The only other original partner that fulfilled their commitment (and quite timely) was Pluto TV.

How about 24/7 Japanese Game Show channel? That would be cool. Or a stream of it to use in your app

what is "live channels"? - Thanks.

Is it better than Pluto? I find 100% of Pluto's content total and complete dogshit. You think a channel is interesting, then it starts repeating itself a few minutes later. I haven't found one impressive thing on ALL of Pluto TV. I want live channels to be curated content that I possibly own. Maybe a comedy channel that scans plex and Netflix and automatically plays it. Live Channels have so much potential but right now they're just utterly useless.

How does one stop or pause the Bloomberg app? Hitting the BACK button or stop doesn't seem to close the app. Hitting MENU allows me to choose another app, which then stops Bloomberg.

Also, when you say Live Channels, are you referring to "Streaming channels"? I've got a Sony KDL65850C. Thanks!
