Google TV adds its own free live channels, with over 800 available on the homescreen

Rolling out starting today, Google TV is adding hundreds of new streaming channels to its homescreen, all available for free.

Google TV’s homescreen is a content-first experience, with recommendations en masse and, of course, ads too. But Google is now adding another layer to the experience with a major expansion of free content on the Google TV “Live” tab.

The new channels also come with a redesigned “Live” tab on the homescreen.
