Sony Corp. on Thursday said YouTube and Wired have been added to the video providers for a $300 module it sells for its LCD flat panel TVs.
The Internet Video Link module is a small box that fits into the back of some 2007 and 2008 LCD TVs. It connects to the home broadband router and is controlled by the TV remote. Video service comes free with the module.
Yahoo, AOL, Sports Illustrated and Style are among existing video providers for the device.
Similarly, Apple Inc.'s Apple TV set-top box streams YouTube videos to a TV set, but it works with any high-definition set.
Also Thursday, Sony introduced two high-end LCD TV models with backlighting produced by light-emitting diodes, or LEDs. The models are 46 inches and 55 inches diagonally. Prices were not announced, but will be lower than the cost of the only previously available Sony model with LED backlighting, a 70-inch model for $33,000.
