ABC to broadcast shows through Video on Demand

In a major boost to the VoD (Video on Demand) services, ABC Network has now announced their plans to make available their shows on this platform.

This means that popular television shows like “Lost” and “Desperate Housewives” would be available on video-on-demand cable services.

These shows would be provided free of cost though the viewers would not be allowed to skip through advertisements.

Disney spokeswoman Karen Hobson spoke about this new development: “We’re trying to drive everyone back to television but very much understand that with everybody’s lifestyles, they can’t necessarily watch that way and we don’t want to lose them altogether.”

Cox spokesman David Grabert added: “Anything we can do to bring greater convenience to our customers is better for us.”
