FreeHD Canada Inc. is a new Canadian Direct-to-Home satellite
company that has developed a unique offering for the Canadian
marketplace. FreeHD Canada plans to offer a superior High
Definition TV offering (more HD channels, better quality, less price)
to consumers across Canada.
FreeHD Canada has applied to the CRTC for a licence, and is seeking
approval to launch its service in early 2011. By utilizing the latest
new technologies, FreeHD Canada is able to provide more than
200 channels of superior picture quality HD into consumer homes via
a small inexpensive satellite dish. We will be offering two packages
to consumers: |
 |
Free ‘Local Program Package’
For consumers that are used to receiving a few local channels ‘off-air’ from an antenna, FreeHD Canada will offer
a free ‘Local Program Package’ of 15-20 Canadian television channels from within their region – in HD as they
become available – and free to any consumer with a FreeHD Canada receive system (dish and set-top box).
‘All Access Package’
For consumers who want better TV (more HD channels – and with better picture quality) at a better price,
FreeHD Canada will offer up to 150 of the Canadian Pay and Specialty channels – available in HD as they
launch – in this package. FreeHD Canada will offer 2-3 times as many HD channels as its competitors.
The All Access Package will be very competitively priced – enough that we think many consumers will be
very enticed. |
