“We built Project Latte as a complementary service that will delight and amaze viewers with thousands of hours of premium entertainment available on-demand and on the device of their choice,” said Kevin Crull, President, Bell Media. “Project Latte addresses a significant gap in the Canadian TV system and allows TV providers to greatly enhance the value they provide to their clients.

One advantage that Bell might have is its 10% guarantee of HBO content will be included in the service as soon as it is launched.  No pricing information is available yet, but the service will be available across set-top box, apps, online, and other platforms.
