At the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas on 12 January, Technicolor unveiled its new consumer brand, M-GO, a free app that combines the user’s media - movies, music, apps, live TV - in one easy to navigate location.

Technicolor has also announced strategic relationships around M-GO with Intel® Corporation, Samsung, and VIZIO.

M-GO has a state-of-the-art discovery engine that quickly and painlessly gets consumers the content that they want to watch when they want it. M-GO can also be used with smart phones or connected tablets as a premium second-screen experience, when watching TV.  

Said John Batter, CEO of M-GO: “We could not be more thrilled to be partnering with the leading technology brands to deliver the best and most immersive experience regardless of where, when, and how media is consumed.”

M-GO will be available on Intel Ultrabooks™ devices through Intel® AppUpSM center, bringing high-definition, premium digital content for television, movies, music and apps to Ultrabooks and other Intel-based devices enabled by Intel® Insider™.

Furthermore M-GO will come pre-loaded on Samsung’s 2012 Smart TVs and Blu-Ray Disc players and will be accessible on Galaxy tablets. Additionally, with M-GO while watching a movie on the TV, you can simultaneously get bonus content, such as deleted scenes and games on your connected Galaxy devices.

M-GO will come pre-loaded on VIZIO's televisions, tablets, Blu-Ray players and stream players that are part of the VIZIO Internet Apps™ Plus ecosystem, offering consumers the ability to easily access their library of content across device.

“Technicolor is at the intersection of content creation and distribution, and I strongly believe M-GO is the future of digital content discovery and delivery,” said Frederic Rose, CEO of Technicolor.
