Rubberduck lands on Android – delivers mobile TV service to Google phones Rubberduck Media Lab, a subsidiary of Aspiro, Northern Europe’s leading provider of mobile entertainment services, today confirmed that its streaming mobile TV application would now be available for download on Google’s new Nexus One phone and other Android handsets.
Rubberduck provides a hosted mobile TV platform, used by major operators in Europe and worldwide markets, and holds digital rights agreements for mobile content with a host of major broadcasters such as the BBC, the Disney Channel, CNN, CNBC and Turner. The new Android application will enable customers to access an operator’s mobile TV services simply by opening the application to access the web-based content menu.
Announcing the development, Gunnar Sellæg, CEO of Aspiro said: “Rubberduck leads the way with mobile TV content across multiple platforms and devices. Our new Android application confirms that leadership and continues to offer operators the widest possible market reach for mobile TV services.”
The launch of the company’s mobile TV services on the Android platform follows hard on the heels of Aspiro’s launch, last month, of a streaming desktop and mobile music player across a wide range of handsets also including Android. Aspiro is the first company to offer operators a multi-platform white label service that can cover both streaming music and TV.
