Shaw WideOpen Internet also includes Shaw FreeRange TV, which allows iOS users to watch live TV on their iPhone or iPads.

The offer of a lower price on contract, says Shaw, “guarantees” customers of paying the same monthly price per month, keeping them isolated from price increases—and also resembles TELUS Internet contracts.

Earlier today, Shaw announced its acquisition of WIND Mobile boosted their Q3 earnings, to $1.28 billion in revenue, a 13% increase year-over-year.
