Can I watch Start TV on my mobile device?

How many televisions can I connect?

-
Why do I need to be a Start internet customer to get Start TV?
Media distributors, like Start TV, must be registered and this registration tells us exactly how we are allowed to deliver media. The media we broadcast must be sent over our own internet distribution network, which means we can only offer Start TV to people who are Start.ca internet customers. This is a requirement from Canada’s Broadcasting Act.
-
What is Start TV, and how is it different from other TV providers?
Start TV is the next generation of TV service. It uses your existing internet connection to deliver television programming to your home through a set-top box.
