Comcast announced a beta test of a new streaming cable service that furthers their goal to provide TV choices for everyone. The new OTT offering is called Stream.With Stream, Xfinity Internet customers can watch live TV from about a dozen networks – including all the major broadcast nets and HBO- on laptops, tablets and phones in their home. It includes thousands of on demand movies and shows to watch home or away and even comes with access to TV Everywhere and a cloud DVR so you can record all your favorites and watch them later. Stream will be available to our Xfinity Internet customers for only US$15 per month and will first launch in Boston at the end of the summer. Well take it to Chicago and Seattle next, with plans to make it available everywhere in our footprint by early 2016, says Matt Strauss, EVP and general manager, Video Services for Comcast Cable.Among the major networks included are NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS, FOX, The CW, Telemundo, Univisión and the premium channel HBO.
