Reading some of the postings on the launch yesterday, it struck us that we needed to tell everyone more about the content on SyncTV. So here are the channels that are available at the start of the private beta.

Bear in mind that this is not the final line-up of content that the general public will see when the service goes public. We are negotiating with major broadcasters to fill out the channel line-up as the beta period continues.

Boing
Boing is a new channel created especially for kids under 7. We went direct to content distributors to gain rights to shows to make this a hugely attractive channel for parents to subscribe to for their kids. There are over 230 episodes of content available on this channel, with shows spanning classics like Babar the elephant to Ned's Newt. This channel is available under subscription.

Far Out
With Far Out, we are bringing you an eclectic mix of classic TV favorites as well as few selected series such as Bob and Margaret. Far Out will feature lots of great oldies including The Bill Cosby Show, I Spy and The Invisible Man. For most of the shows on this channel we have gathered together all the episodes ever created. Far Out is available under subscription.

Geneon
For Japanese anime fans, we are bringing you a channel from anime powerhouse Geneon, the company responsible for bringing Pokemon and Dragonball Z into American homes. Shows from this channel will be available on a pay-per-download and rental basis. On this channel, we have cult shows like Gun Sword and Lupin the 3rd.

Showtime
We are also very pleased to bring you Showtime, a channel which has rightly been gaining plaudits recently for its high-quality programming. The shows we have on our Showtime channel at this time are Dexter, The L Word and Brotherhood, with much more to come. Showtime content is NOT available under subscription at this time. It is one of the minority of channels that will make its content available on a pay-per-download basis.
