Thanks to Joseph Manley of Ottawa, Bell ExpressVu’s subscriber numbers have now topped the 1.5 million mark. ExpressVu president Robert Odendaal credits the satellite service’s accomplishment to new simplified programming packages and the successes of varied Bell service bundles. Odendaal also made reference to new innovative hardware and additional HDTV content being available for subscribers in the not-too-distant future. ExpressVu, Canada’s leading direct-to-home satellite company for almost a decade, broadcasts more than 400 digital video and audio channels.
