Love Nature, a wildlife and nature brand with linear and streaming channels available in over 135 countries, announced today its debut on Australia’s 7plus, Seven Network’s streaming service, as a both free, ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) channel and a broadcaster video on demand (BVOD) offering.
As part of the launch, 7plus audiences will be granted free access to Love Nature’s award-winning series, documentaries and programming events.
In Australia, 7plus is available across connected LG, Samsung and Android TVs, Apple iOS, Android, Chromecast, PS4 and more. The deal furthers Love Nature’s worldwide expansion on linear and free-streaming platforms around the world.
