Pluto TV is a free ad-supported, over-the-top (OTT) video service that provides content from digital streaming networks in a “live channel” experience. Without requiring you to register or sign in, Pluto brings content from Hive, Cracked, IGN and others in a 24/7 “live” stream and it’s refreshed throughout the day. When you open the app, you'll see content from over 150 digital content partners presented as a live channel.
