Growing Popularity and Future Prospects

While the majority of these channels are sourced from content partners like Tubi, Plex, Pluto TV, and Haystack, Google’s own collection of channels has been steadily expanding.
Google’s focus on these free channels stems from their potential as a revenue generator through its recently launched Google TV Network. This network allows advertisers to target viewers on Google TV devices and smart TVs with ads, hinting at the possibility of more free channels in the future.
How to Access the Free Channels
Accessing these free channels is as simple as navigating to the Live tab on your Google TV device. Under “Free built-in channels,” select “Google TV” to find the curated collection of channels. No third-party app installations are required, making it a seamless experience for users.
Conclusion
Google TV’s ever-expanding library of free channels is a testament to the platform’s commitment to providing a wide range of entertainment options to its users. With over 130 Google-owned channels and a growing number of content partners, Google TV is solidifying its position as a hub for both premium and free content.
