Google announced a few days ago that the Google TV platform, available only in the United States, had increased the number of channels available to 800. Google TV has been operating in the United States for almost a decade and is currently not available outside of the American territory, due to which at the moment looks like the search giant has no plans to expand this platform outside the United States.

Google launched Google TV to compete with the traditional cable channels in the United States, with the main advantage that it is not necessary to carry out any type of installation to offer the signal, hence, as the years have gone by, there are many channels , mainly regional in addition to the traditional large American media, have switched to this platform in order to reach a greater number of users. Due to its nature, the chances of Google TV leaving the United States, at least for now, are very small.
