mio TV Hits 200,000 Customers

SINGAPORE: To celebrate the milestone of reaching 200,000 customers, mio TV is offering a range of bonuses for subscribers.

mio TV subscribers will be the first in Singapore to have James Cameron’s box-office smash hit Avatar available in their homes. From April 22 to May 16, Avatar, along with a host of other on-demand movies, will be available at the special price of S$2.99 per movie. Further films included at the special price are Inglourious Basterds, 2012, Jennifer’s Body, Did You Hear About the Morgans? and Surrogates.

During this time, mio TV will also be pulling a daily lucky draw, where customers have the chance to win a Samsung 40 inch 3D LED TV, Samsung 3D Blu-ray player, two pairs of Samsung 3D glasses and a Monsters vs. Aliens 3D Blu-ray DVD, a package valued at more than S$5,000. New and existing customers are automatically qualified for the drawing.

“We are thrilled that 200,000 Singaporeans have chosen mio TV for their home entertainment,” said Tim Carmichael, the VP of mio TV. “Since its launch in 2007, mio TV has created waves in the pay-TV market in Singapore, which was dominated by a single player for over a decade. We have brought many innovations to the market and today’s announcement is a reinforcement of our commitment to leading and shaping the industry.”

“We are delighted to be the first in Singapore to bring Avatar into our customers’ living rooms,” added Carmichael. “The lucky winners of the Samsung 3D TVs will get to enjoy our movies in spectacular 3D right from the comfort of their sofas!”

He continued, “mio TV has always been at the forefront of bringing the best and latest content to Singapore. Since 2008, fans have been able to watch the hottest TV series such as Glee, Gossip Girl and Vampire Diaries as early as 24 hours after their U.S. telecast, and Hollywood movies on the same day as their DVD release, often as soon as three to four months after they first hit cinema screens. We would like to take this opportunity to thank our customers for their support and look forward to bringing even more exciting new content to their TV screens.”
