Using Amagi Content Plus, a non-exclusive, revenue share-based distribution model encompassing the channel playout solution Amagi Cloudport and ad insertion solution Amagi Thunderstorm, Law & Crime is distributing and monetising its linear content on TCL.

The Roku Channel and Peacock are among the other FAST platforms that now host Law & Crime content, powered by Amagi’s cloud-led technologies. Amagi has deep technical integrations with 50+ FAST platforms around the world.
