The Sunday Times recently announced that BskyB is going to buy out the leading UK-based WiFi network provider, The Cloud. Since the story comes right from the horse’s mouth itself, as the newspaper is also owned by the media Czar Murdoch, this one is true for sure.
Cloud has got itself a good following in the United Kingdom as being a rather neutral wifi provider. The provider for once has as many as twenty two thousand wifi access points in the whole of Europe. An official announcement of the deal is going to be made soon enough when Sky makes an announcement of its earnings report.
These various access points as provide by Cloud have seen users having a good enough access to the internet from their mobile smart devices like smart phones, laptops, tablets, etc. One may find these hotspots of wifi access to be in restaurants and other public places which also includes fast food outlets (McDonalds) and Hotels (Marriott Hotels).
People have found this service to be rather great and efficient at that. As many as 100 million plus network minutes per month are offered to people by the company. This also sees an average download speed of over 3.5Mbit/s which is again brilliant for wireless internet connectivity.
This will only further more boost Murdoch’s ambitious endeavors and continuing with his rampage. For once, Sky's 2.8 million fixed line broadband customers will get internet access when out of range of a broadband connectivity from their homes. This will be a part of multi-play package that Sky looks at offering which is similar to the ones as provided by BT and Virgin Media for once.
