MSN Mobile Adds Content Partners

Microsoft added a bunch of content partners to its MSN Mobile portal in recent days in an effort to highlight the company’s new 3G mobile video streaming service. New additions to the service include media partners Comedy Time, Fun Little Movies, GetBack, GoTV, Versaly and WebRidesTV.

The company said in a statement on its Windows Live blog that MSN Mobile is also introducing new music & viral video channels. “The music channel is dedicated to bringing the best music video, news, lifestyle and backstage access right to your phone. The viral channel is filled with amusing, off-the-wall videos, including wild stunts, wacky animals, sports bloopers, crazy parodies and more.” Any 3G-capable phone can view the new content by heading to mobile.msn.com from their cell phone’s Web browser.
