Plex has announced the acquisition of Watchup, a streaming news service.
If the last year has taught us anything, it’s that news is a very important part of our media diet. Especially as a cord-cutter, as many of you are, it can be challenging to find that nourishment, like when you hide kale from a hipster. A few months ago, we introduced the awesome new Plex DVR, which gives people an incredibly simple way to suck content out of thin air (or cable) and store it in their libraries. We were able to leverage many aspects of our platform in order to provide you with features and ease of use not found elsewhere. This kind of awesome, unified experience just isn’t possible for others, and we’re going to be building on that as we move forward to bring news media to you in a holistic manner within Plex!
Watchup uses an advanced machine learning system that processes local, national, and international news to generate a personalized feed. The company partnered with over 150 publishers to build its product, including a some who invested in the company.
You can download Plex from the App Store for free.
