Mundotoro TV is born, a streaming platform specialized in bullfighting broadcasts

El Círculo de Bellas Artes de Madrid ha acogido la presentación de Mundotoro TV, una plataforma de streaming que busca “tomar la alternativa de las retransmisiones taurinas”, tomando así el relevo de, entre otros agentes, el malogrado canal Toros de Movistar Plus+.

The platform, nacida con la “responsabilidad de servir de nexo entre la fiesta y la afición”, operará bajo el modelo de suscripción mensual a un precio de 14,99€ al mes, un coste muy por encima de la media. Accesible a través de una app móvil y web browser, la plataforma también nace integrada en Samsung, LG, tvOS (apple TV), Amazon Fire, Chromecast and Roku. The willingness to reach agreements with all TV operators that want to distribute the service has also been announced, confirming advanced conversations with Vodafone, Orange y TIVIFY, as well as with different agents from Portugal, France, Mexico and the United States.

Alipio Pérez-Tabernero, head of programming, has detailed that beyond the most common OTT capabilities in these services, Mundotoro TV will have a canal lineal for a “greater” ease of access to the entire universe of bullfighting fans." The chain's commitment is to offer more than 100 races per year without skimping on production resources. In fact, Victor Santamaria, responsible for production, has detailed that the broadcasts will incorporate drones, film cameras and greater attention to sound.

The start of emissions will be next April 9, deadline after a period of testing emissions that is already underway.
