Virgin Media UK Adds Support for Fox’s Tubi Streaming Service to TV Platform
Customers of home broadband ISP Virgin Media (O2), specifically those who take their Pay TV service (usually via one of their TV 360, Stream or v6 box platforms), may like to know that the service has now added support for Fox Corporation’s ad-supported streaming service, Tubi, at no extra cost.
Tubi, which claims to entertain over 100 million monthly active users across the world, is currently home to a vast catalogue of over 60,000 movies and TV episodes accessible to millions more households. A sample of titles available for viewers in December include Zombieland, Baby Driver, Bend it Like Beckham, Jack and Jill, Robin Hood (2018) and La La Land.
David Bouchier, Chief TV and Entertainment Officer at VMO2, said: “We are delighted to add Tubi to our offering, giving Virgin TV customers access to one of the world’s biggest offerings of world-famous movies, TV shows and documentaries at absolutely no extra cost. With Tubi, we know families can immerse themselves in even more must-see on demand entertainment on the Virgin TV platform.”

Apparently more than 95% of viewing on Tubi is on–demand movies and TV shows, although it recently launched over 30 Free Ad-Supported Streaming Television (FAST) Channels with key partners such as Lionsgate, A&E, Banijay, and Filmrise.
