Showtime Adds Roku and Sony PlayStation to OTT Partners

Showtime plans to make its standalone Internet video service available on Roku and PlayStation devices when it launches early next month. The CBS-owned cable network originally announced that its OTT offering would initially be available through an exclusive distribution deal with Apple. The $10.99 per month service is the latest to target cord-nevers and cord-cutters who do not have traditional pay TV plans. Variety reports: “Showtime — similar to its arrangements with cable and satellite TV affiliates — will provide a recurring share of the monthly subscription fee to Apple, Roku, Sony and future OTT distributors, Showtime chairman and CEO Matt Blank said.”
