ABS-CBN Digital Media, commonly known as Digital Media Division, and also known as ABS-CBN Interactive, is the digital media and internet division of ABS-CBN Corporation. It was formerly a separate company operating as a wholly owned subsidiary of ABS-CBN until 2013, when ABS-CBN Interactive, Inc. was merged to its parent. ABS-CBN Digital Media is responsible for overseeing all of ABS-CBN's internet and digital properties which include websites, mobile and web applications, social media accounts, and the distribution of ABS-CBN's contents (TV channels, audio channels, TV programs, films, music recordings, music videos, images, magazines, books, news, etc.) to digital and online space. ABS-CBN Digital Media has made many first in Philippine media, such as the first ever TV network website (ABS-CBN.com launched in 1995), the first ever Filipino news website (news.ABS-CBN.com launched in 1997), and the first Filipino video streaming website (ABS-CBN Now! launched in 2003; now known as iWantTFC). In 2017, the company was the largest in digital media platforms in the Philippines.[2]
