In a move that underscores the growing demand for quality children's content in Spanish, Liberty Puerto Rico and HITN have announced that Edye, HITN's premium content ecosystem for preschool-age children, is now available to Liberty TV customers in Puerto Rico. Starting this week, Liberty customers can add Edye to any television package for just $2.99 per month, gaining access to an ad-free, curated library of shows designed for children ages two to six.
The partnership comes at a time when parents are increasingly seeking trustworthy, educational screen time options for their young children. Edye offers a safe digital environment, free from commercials, with content that nurtures curiosity, imagination, and developmental milestones through beloved characters like Daniel Tiger, Pocoyo, Paw Patrol, and Molang. The platform boasts over 2,500 episodes across more than 70 preschool series, along with interactive games and parent guides that extend learning beyond the screen.
For Liberty, this addition reinforces its position as the leading provider of broadband, video, telephone, and wireless services in Puerto Rico. "Our customers are always looking for content they can trust for their little ones, and Edye is exactly that," said Quique Vivas, Chief Consumer Officer at Liberty. "We're very happy and proud to be able to offer this high-quality platform to our customers."
Edye will be available as an à la carte option within Liberty's entertainment packages and can also be accessed via Liberty Go, the exclusive app for Liberty TV customers, which allows streaming on mobile devices and tablets. Additionally, users can download the Edye app from the App Store and Google Play to enjoy content on the go.
Eric Turpin, General Manager of HITN, highlighted the significance of Puerto Rico to HITN's audience. "Puerto Rico has always been a core part of our audience, and this partnership lets us reach families wherever they are," he said. "Edye was created to give parents peace of mind and offer children content that supports their development. Bringing this experience to Liberty customers means even more families on the Island can turn screen time into family connection time."
The launch of Edye on Liberty comes as part of a broader trend in the media industry, where streaming services and premium content platforms are increasingly targeting niche audiences with specialized offerings. For Spanish-speaking families in Puerto Rico, this provides a valuable resource that combines entertainment with educational value, addressing a gap in the market for high-quality, culturally relevant preschool content.
Edye's expansion into Puerto Rico through Liberty is a strategic move that builds on its existing presence in the United States, Latin America, and Brazil. The platform has been available in Spanish and Portuguese for over seven years on major digital platforms and through pay-TV and mobile operators across the region. This latest partnership with Liberty not only extends Edye's reach but also underscores the importance of partnerships between content providers and telecom operators in delivering specialized content to consumers.
As families increasingly seek ways to balance screen time with productive learning, offerings like Edye are becoming essential. With its focus on safety, ad-free viewing, and developmental support, Edye is well-positioned to meet the needs of modern parents. The collaboration between HITN and Liberty Puerto Rico represents a significant step forward in making quality educational content accessible to more families, potentially setting a precedent for similar partnerships in other markets.
