The URL www.itv.com is the address of the main website of ITV, the UK's biggest commercial broadcaster. The website offers news, sport, weather, entertainment, games, a MovieClub, a shop as well as ITV programme information and TV listings.
Each of ITV's digital channels, ITV2, ITV3, ITV4, ITV Play and CITV Channel have a page with information on their programming. Live streaming of ITV Play is also available on its site. There are also pages for the ITV regions owned by ITV plc. The regions not owned by ITV plc each have their own, separate websites.
Due to the major rebrand of the ITV "family of channels" in January 2006, itv.com received a new look in the summer of 2006 ditching it familiar itv.com logo for one that read only 'itv'. Currently, the ITV4 minisite has a different look to the rest of the site, the reason why is unknown.
The URL 'www.itv.com' was created on 31 October 1994, but was registered elsewhere for some years before Carlton Television and Granada Television, who have since merged to form ITV plc, bought the domain name. The original ITV URL was www.itv.co.uk, which now redirects to ITV.com.
