Sling TV, a service that allows viewers to watch live TV online, has added NBC Sports Network to its roster of channels, the company announced Thursday.
Along with NBCSN, Sling is launching NBC, USA, Bravo, Syfy, BBC America and more, bringing its total number of channels over 100. As far as sports stations go, Sling already offers all ESPN channels, as well as FS1, FS2 and all Fox regional sports networks.
Sling will also add NBC regional sports networks for select markets, including California, Bay Area, Chicago and Mid-Atlantic.
The addition of NBCSN comes in time for the Summer Olympics, which will be broadcast on NBC channels, beginning August 3. Events will air on NBC, NBCSN, CNBC, USA, Bravo, Golf Channel and more.
Here’s a statement from Sling’s CEO on the new expansion:
“Consumers now have more than 100 channels to choose from as they customize their ideal television experience,” said Roger Lynch, CEO, Sling TV. “With our new multi-service option and NBC Universal programming, Sling is one of the few pay-TV options where value continues to improve.”
The streaming service announced it will split its service into two packages, the single-stream “Sling Orange” and multi-stream “Sling Blue,” which will cost $20 and $25, respectively.
