Claro has stepped up its efforts to obtain the franchise license it requested more than three years ago to break into the island’s paid television market by launching an online signature collection campaign Friday in support of its IPTV service.
Hundreds of channels, “a la carte”-like programming and cutting edge features based on a $60 million platform are some of the features that Claro TV is ready to offer island customers through the Internet-based cable television service it is proposing to launch.
A hearing slated to let the public and paid television industry players offer their opinions on whether Claro TV’s request for a cable television franchise is in the public interest may not take place Monday at the Telecommunications Regulatory Board if petitions the company filed to block it are granted.
