Premier Internet-based High Definition Television Provider Signs Deals With Retro Television Network (RTV), The Ski Channel, The Documentary Channel, and Tuff TV

MIAMI, Jan. 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- FilmOn.com Inc, (http://www.FilmOn.com/), the premier internet based high definition television service, today announced it has signed multiple content agreements with Retro Television Network (RTV), The Ski Channel, The Documentary Channel and Tuff TV.

"The deal we've stuck with new content providers gives our customers an excellent line-up of live television options in addition to our existing channels -all from their mobile device or computer," said Alki David, founder and chairman, FilmOn. "We're happy to partner with content owners who see the tremendous opportunity in building large audiences by not restricting broadcasts to just TV sets."

Chattanooga-based Luken Communications owns RTV and is part of a joint venture for Tuff TV with Tuff TV Media Group LLC. From its launch RTV's main concept is to provide a round-the-clock schedule of shows that aired between the 1950s and the late 1980s/early 1990s. The network's current roster of shows includes longtime classics such as Leave it to Beaver, Kojak, McHale's Navy, Adam-12, Emergency!, and The Rockford Files; rarely seen shows such as Ellery Queen; and horror film showcases like Off Beat Cinema. RTV also occasionally airs classic commercials to help fill in the ad breaks of older programs.

Tuff TV is the first digital broadcast network to offer first run original programming targeted at men. The channel features news and syndicated Sports, Lifestyle, Drama, Reality, Talk, Special programming and Movies.

Documentary Channel (DOC) is the USA's first 24-hour television network exclusively devoted to documentary films and the independent documentary filmmaker, providing viewers with round-the-clock opportunities to see fascinating, eclectic and award-winning documentary films of all lengths and genres.

The Ski Channel is the only television network devoted to the wide variety of year round mountain activities such as skiing, snowboarding, hiking, biking, backpacking, climbing, etc, along with many off-slope activities.
