TBN Signs With IPTV Service Launching in 2011

Trinity Broadcasting Network services will be distributed by
Internet-based program aggregator World Inspirational Network, launching
early in 2011, the companies said.

Subscribers to the planned
IPTV network would use a wireless high-definition set-top device hooked
to the TV set to access live faith-based programming and archived
content, such as church services, movies and concerts, WIN founder and
co-chairman Michael Jay Solomon said in a joint release with TBN.

WIN subscribers also will be able to access the programming on their computers, he said.
