After a brief exclusive run on iOS, 120 Sports is now available for Android users. Backed by Time Inc (the owner of Sports Illustrated), the online network features live and on-demand content from a variety of different sports leagues by crunching the action into two minute video clips. The company claims its new app offers over 10 hours of live programming every day, which should make the service appealing to cord cutters who miss regular news breaks from places like ESPN.
