“We are focused on providing a compelling and unique entertainment experience in a way that every consumer can enjoy — whether that’s a traditional television viewing experience, on demand or on the Internet where video consumption is growing. Mediacom is a great distribution partner that serves a unique marketplace in our country – smaller towns and rural communities. We are particularly excited to work with them and to demonstrate the on demand and online
capabilities that EPIX has developed” stated Mark Greenberg, president of EPIX.
