“Premium ad-free offerings like AMC Premiere and FX+ illustrate how fuboTV is able to take advantage of our next-gen platform to bring cord-cutters great content and experiences that many pay TV providers can’t—or won’t—provide,” said Ben Grad, fuboTV’s head of content strategy and acquisition, in a statement.
fuboTV announced last month that it added 30,000 subscribers in the third quarter, bringing its base to around 250,000 customers.
