(Toronto – March 26, 2007) The “big picture” of HDTV in Canada just got sharper, following an agreement between cutting-edge program providers High Fidelity HDTV and Hamilton’s innovative Source Cable Ltd.
Beginning April 1, the all-HD channels, Oasis HD, Rush HD, Treasure HD and Equator HD, will be available to Source Cable customers in Hamilton and surrounding area.
“We are extremely pleased to be launching on Source Cable”, says High Fidelity HDTV co-founder Ken Murphy. “Source Cable has been a leader in the cable industry by continually exceeding the demands of their subscribers. Adding Oasis HD, Treasure HD, Equator HD, and Rush HD to their HD lineup puts them at the forefront of the High Definition revolution. “We look forward to providing customers of Source Cable with smart, refreshing and beautiful High Definition storytelling. It’s spectacular programming unavailable on any other channel.” adds John Panikkar, co-founder of High Fidelity HDTV. The first cable operator in Canada to offer its entire video lineup in digital format – Source Cable is a natural match for Canada’s premier provider of high definition programming, made for HDTV’s.
“At Source Cable, we realize that consumers now have an abundance of choices in entertainment and information services,” says Source Cable’s Gordon Corlett. “With that in mind, we’re constantly upgrading to ensure our customers have the very best services at the lowest possible prices.” “Although, we already offer our customers 16 High Definition channels”, notes Corlett, “we have to continually add more channels to our line-up to stay competitive. We wanted to add HD networks that had impact, were original and different. High Fidelity fit the bill. They offer four terrific channels with original programming, all in true High Definition, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Plus, there are no catches. Our customers don’t have to take any other channels in order to subscribe to these networks, and there are no blackouts or program substitutions required”. Canadian veteran broadcasters Ken Murphy and John Panikkar, the co-creators of the groundbreaking new company High Fidelity HDTV, took a hard look at the future of television and realized it belonged to those who could offer true HD programming, shot in HD. Formed in the spring of 2003, High Fidelity HDTV quickly formed partnerships with similarly forward-thinking HDTV broadcasters around the world. High Fidelity HDTV offers the rapidly growing number of Canadian HD viewers four 24/7 all High Definition channels which make owning an HD set worthwhile.
