With the addition of INSIGHT TV, Layer3 TV now carries two 24/7 4K networks, a growing library of 4K UHD On Demand content and access to live 4K events including Fox Sports’ 4K college football coverage this Fall and the successful June 2017 Bellator NYC mixed martial arts fight night. Its subscribers’ demand for 4K UHD has matched Layer3 TV’s drive to add more. More than 50% of Layer3 TV subscribers have watched 4K live or On Demand. Further, most 4K UHD On Demand programs rank among the top 10 most-viewed titles within 48 hours of becoming available.
Founded in 2013 by cable veterans Jeff Binder and Dave Fellows, the company is headquartered in Denver, Colorado. One hundred percent of Layer3 TV’s current subscribers have access to INSIGHT TV because every Layer3 TV set-top box is 4K enabled. Layer3 TV counts among its distribution partners Fox Networks Group, Disney and ESPN Media Networks, Turner, NBCUniversal, Viacom, CBS, Discovery, HBO, Showtime, EPIX, Scripps Networks Interactive, as well as local television broadcasters, regional sports networks and major studios.
INSIGHT TV creates and commissions non-scripted, long form, high-quality series producing compelling content that takes the viewer on a journey to explore, be educated and entertained. INSIGHT TV’s range of programming demonstrates the very best of 4K.
