The Wiggles have launched their own internet TV channel, which is available exclusively on Sony compatible products, such as Bravia IPTVs and internet-connected Blu-ray players.
Available for $6.70 per month, Wiggle Time! TV promises three hours of new videos every month, with users able to access content on demand.
"A lot of what we do comes from a child's perspective,” said Blue Wiggle Anthony Field. “Many parents have asked us if our shows can be made available on demand, so this is great news!”
Continuing this wiggling enthusiasm is Sony Australia head of corporate communications Jenny Geddes.
“Gone are the days of having to watch web videos crowded over a computer. With Internet TV, it means the whole family can watch content over the web directly on the TV in their lounge room. The Wiggles certainly belong on the big screen – and now they have their own TV channel on our BRAVIA Internet Video service.”
