TechCrunch: The way people watch TV in a multi-device world is changing, which has led a number of consumers — especially among the younger demographic — to cut the cord with traditional pay TV. Philo is a startup that is helping cable and satellite TV providers re-engage this audience at the university level with a live TV service offering search, sharing and a network-based DVR. The company has just raised an additional $10 million in Series B funding to continue to grow its business. The service is one of the first startups to receive an investment from HBO, which also previously invested in an early round.
