Ahora LLC will be launching three (3) unique all digital service offerings that target the Hispanic broadband connected users in the US and the world before the end of 2006.   The service offerings are Ahora TV, Canal Interactivo, and Ahora IPTV.

With the Ahora TV and Canal Interactivo service offerings, all the programs that a user elects to view are ‘pre-delivered’ to the user computer hard disk.  Because all programs are ‘pre-delivered’ and not streamed, the programs are DVD quality and will never suffer from the stuttering or small screen viewing experience traditionally associated with streaming video service offerings.

Ahora TV, will initially consist of six (6) ‘channels’ of on-demand, DVD quality programming.  The delivered programs are accessible via a users PC or any one of the millions of Microsoft Media Center Edition PCs that have been deployed.  Ahora TV uses an interface to organize the delivered programs and works with the Media Center PC remote control from the comfort of your sofa.

The Canal Interactivo service offerings will initially consist of three (3) service offerings.   The first of these service offerings is the Ahora Musica service, which delivers the latest music videos from Latin artists to user PC’s in full-screen DVD quality and on an On-Demand basis.  Once the users ‘joins’ Ahora Musica, programs being offered by Ahora Musica will be pre-delivered to the users computer hard-disk, but viewed via a web page.

Ahora will aggregate content that is being used for the On-Demand service offerings, Ahora TV and Canal Interactive (Ahora Musica being the first), and create genre specific 24x7 IPTV streaming channels that will be offered to the 1000’s of IP-based networks across the US and around the world that may have an interest in promoting Spanish language media as part of their IPTV service offering.
