Columbia TriStar, among other studios, as well as games from Two Way TV Ltd. and
an interactive-TV matchmaking service from TV Mates.
Consumers can chose from a $39.95-per-month basic interactive package or a
deluxe package for $59.95.
The service also includes TV electronic mail and Internet access. The Two Way
TV games are free during the trial.
