11 Jan, 2007, 4:15 pm IST | by Sharon Khare | Windows

Akimbo, the first Internet video-on-demand service for TV, has announced that it is working with Yahoo! to bring the best of Internet video directly to the TV via the Akimbo Service. Akimbo subscribers will be able to browse a selection of popular video updated regularly from the Yahoo! Video service, access titles for free and watch them on TV whenever they want.


"Yahoo! Video captures highly relevant and quality videos on the Internet, making it a stellar addition to the Akimbo Service," said Akimbo CEO Josh Goldman. "Akimbo subscribers will appreciate the option to watch the latest Internet video sensations like 'Camping Out for PS3' on TV in the comfort of the living room."

The Akimbo Service features more than 14,000 movies, TV series and unique shows from over 200 content partners for watching on-demand on television. Akimbo subscribers browse the onscreen Akimbo Guide and select from an array of mainstream and niche video spanning 100 categories — including hundreds of Hollywood studio movies via Movielink, classic films, indie flicks, foreign language shows, extreme sports, travelogues, how-to programs and children's videos.

A subscription to the Akimbo Service costs $9.99 a month.
