According to Telstra, the new BigPond Live TV News channel is a continuous live video stream of general news, politics, finance, sport and weather. It will also combine news bulletins with wider coverage of business, health, environment, entertainment, and technology.

This new channel is available online at bigpond.com or on compatible Telstra Next G mobiles 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Telstra Media Group’s Managing Director, Mr Justin Milne said, “Telstra’s new service will provide Australians with a whole new way to receive their news, because from today they can watch and listen to live video news almost anywhere they go and exactly when they feel like it.”

The BigPond Live News service is continually updated with video bulletins and also has the ability to break to live news when it occurs.

Telstra 3G and Next G mobile customers with compatible handsets can subscribe to BigPond Live TV News for $4.95 per month or $1.95 for a day pass. The news channel is also available online at bigpond.com by clicking on the TV tab. This online service is also unmetered for most BigPond broadband customers, which means viewing the video does not count towards your monthly data allowance.
