A la carte tennis channel “Tennis Channel Plus” saw huge growth during its first year of existence including a major surge in usage during the French open which featured 260+ hours of coverage, 140+ live matches and encore replays, and 120+ hours of nightly primetime show French Open Tonight. The service which costs a one time fee of $79.99 per year or a more flexible $11.99 per month allows users to watch expanded coverage of major events throughout the year. While not a full replacement for the actual tennis channel it provides a great option for tennis fans who choose to drop cable as well as die hards who just can’t get enough net action. According to a press release 25% of subscribers use the online service once daily. Of those users 50% stream from their computers, 25% used tablets, 15% via media streamers (Apple TV and Roku) as well as 10% on mobile phones.
