NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., July 5, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Since 2005, Wi-Fi TV Inc. (Pink Sheets:WFTV) has been involved in the Internet delivery of entertainment content. The company's Chairman, Alex Kanakaris, has been touting the future of Internet content delivery for many years at Internet conferences, on radio and in TV interviews -- including two co-hosted by Internet co-founder Vinton Cerf -- and in a book.
Over the past two weeks, Mr. Kanakaris has addressed a public audience in New York and answered questions from the media on new developments in the delivery of entertainment content over the Internet.
Yesterday, Mr. Kanakaris stated, "This weekend's historic Live 8 concerts showed TV at its worst and the Internet at its best. While MTV veejays talked about the Live 8 concert, and either cut away from the performances or didn't show them at all, AOL offered the concerts in their entirety to Internet viewers.
"While Hollywood tries to figure out why there have been declines in box office revenue, consumers are up in arms over the cost of taking a family to a theater, and are enjoying watching movies in their homes.
"With the increasing availability of broadband and wi-fi connectivity, consumers can now enjoy movies, TV, phone calls and more by using the Internet," Mr. Kanakaris stated.
Wi-Fi TV Inc. offers Internet delivery of TV channels and phone calls for free at www.wi-fitv.com and will be offering multiple targeted advertising opportunities for this ad-based delivery. Wi-Fi TV Inc. also offers freed demonstrations on online movie delivery technology at www.CinemaPop.com.
