FREE Broadcasting

TVU's free TVUBroadcast software allows anyone with a PC and a broadband Internet connection to create a 24/7 live TV channel. 

Our goal is to democratize broadcasting:  to enable existing TV channels to find a global audience, and to allow content owners to create new channels.

Whether your content is live or consists of pre-recorded programs, we hope you'll create unique channels that are educational, cultural, and most of all, have great entertainment value for our audiences worldwide.
