Discover Freely: broadcast TV over broadband with Manhattan Aero
So you've heard about Freely – the new streaming platform from the BBC, ITV, Channel 4, and Channel 5. And here's what makes it different from everything that came before: live TV channels streamed over your broadband. No aerial. No dish. Just Wi-Fi.
A New way to watch "broadcast" TV
With Freeview and Freesat, your live channels have always come through an aerial or a dish. The catch-up apps were streamed, sure, but the live stuff needed traditional broadcast. Freely changes that. Your broadband does everything.

The Manhattan Aero:
Freely for Your TV
The Manhattan Aero 4K TV Streamer is a small streaming device that plugs into your TV's HDMI port. Connect it to your broadband connection (via Wi-Fi or Ethernet), and your existing television gets access to the complete Freely platform.
TV over broadband: what are the advantages?
When live TV comes over broadband instead of an aerial, you get some real advantages.
- Picture quality. Over 35 Freely channels stream in HD. Compare that to Freeview, which has only 9 HD channels, with everything else in standard definition.
- Pause and restart. You can pause live TV for up to 15 minutes and restart programmes from the beginning on supported channels.
- No signal issues. No aerial means no reception problems. If your broadband works, your TV works.
- Flexibility. Want a TV in a room without an aerial socket? With Freely and the Aero, that's no longer a problem. Any room with a Wi-Fi signal becomes a TV room.
