Ameba, the Winnipeg-based multi-platform digital distribution service aimed at kids, has partnered with LG Electronics. According to CEO Tony Havelka, the deal names Ameba as a premier partner on the LGE Smart TV platform in Canada, which will include the Ameba Smart Kids TV digital distribution service preinstalled on all LGE Smart TV, DVD and Blu-ray devices sold in Canada, giving viewers instant access to Ameba’s library of programming for kids, 2-12.
Ameba’s new agreement with LGE follows the company’s deal with ROKU set-top boxes announced earlier this year and will extend the reach of Smart Kids TV to more than 1.5 million homes in North America over the next 12 months.
“We are thrilled to welcome LGE to our growing list of partners and look forward to reaching greater audiences with their high quality televisions and consumer devices,” says Havelka.
