Comcast Launches TV Everywhere Renamed As Xfinity TV
The Comcast TV Everywhere concept finally becomes available nationwide. They even thought to rename it just as everyone has got used to the old name, and the million dollar marketing came up with…… ‘Xfinity’. Actually the full name is ‘Fancast Xfinity TV’. Oh well, you cant get everything right. The TV Everywhere concept has now come out of Beta and been made available nationally.
Watch TV On Demand With Xfinity
You do need to be a subscriber of both internet and cable TV subscriptions, and need to download a software plugin that allows use on 3 computers for every account. Viewers neednt be at home to activate their computers for viewing, just supply a valid login and you can view TV pretty much anywhere that has browser capabilities within the US. There is around 2000 hours of streaming content online including HBO and Starz restricted items, and also some HDTV content. You can view the complete list on Fancast.com.
For all existing subscribers that fall into the correct category, its a great deal. Watch premium TV shows and movies content from HBO, Cinemax amongst others anywhere you happen to be. Although what possessed Comcast to change the perfectly good and appropriate product name TV Everywhere and rename it to something long, unremarkable, and impossible to remember.

Good point Nick but I’m not sure if even proper advertising can save this. Yes you get to watch TV on your iPad or tablet, but you must stay in your house to do that. With the TV Everywhere offered by DISH Network you can be anywhere in the world with an internet connection and view all of your programming and DVR recordings. Not just select shows or movies. As a DISH employee I am very excited about this, it lives up to the name of TV Everywhere.
