Portable Disney Channel

Smart phones with FLO TV technology and the FLO TV standalone unit will now have access to ABC and Disney Channel shows like Lost, Grey's Anatomy, Hannah Montana and JONAS.

Looks like Disney's not only recognizing the rise of casual multi-platform gaming and the spread of franchises, but they're also diving into to on demand market.

Soon their movies will be easily accessible on Keychest and their television shows will be available on portable devices and cell phones.

Disney's really making an effort to be on the forefront of media reach and technology.

I kind of feel like my friend after she used a meal swipe to get some homeless guy some food only to come back and catch him on his cell phone.

The theme of many recent Disney articles is their desire for more revenue - from parks, new content, etc. - seemingly negatively affected by the recession and crying about it.
Looking at they're annual revenues from 1991 - 2008 (yes, it's Wikipedia, but they're cited), their revenue increases by a greater margin each year.

Last year's annual revenue topped at nearly $38 billion.

You're really suffering guys.

Anyway, the more interesting point is that nearly $16 billion of that is from Disney Media Networks. This isn't surprising when you realize this includes ESPN as well as Disney channels, ABC channels, and Radio Disney.

Here's yet another reason they moved up someone from their TV department - it's been the their most successful area.

With Rich Ross now heading the movie studios, all the additions to Disney World, revamps to all the Disney Stores and more, looks like Disney's trying to get each of it's sectors up to the level of it's Media Networks.
