QVC, HSN Launch Streaming Shopping App on Samsung Smart TVs

QVC and HSN launched a combined interactive streaming shopping service on Samsung smart TVs, they announced Tuesday. Samsung smart TV users can sign into their QVC or HSN account to learn about products and make purchases within the app, they said. The QVC+ and HSN+ streaming experience combines QVC's and HSN's five linear broadcast channels -- QVC, QVC2, QVC3, HSN and HSN2, offering 50-plus hours a day of live virtual commerce content -- with three digital-only linear channels and some 20 original, streaming-only shows, they said. Samsung Smart TV users can use their remote to access the QVC+ and HSN+ streaming service in the app store; the app will have featured placement in the app store preview on the Samsung Smart TV home page for three months.
