Hopefully, we'll be able to offer that technology even more broadly throughout the world over time and continue to be an innovation engine where people want to work and where people want to consume our products.'Ĭomcast's global technology platform emerges as the company aims to become a key player in a streaming platform market led by Roku, Amazon (Fire TV) and Google (Android TV, Chromecast), as well as a handful of TV makers, including Samsung (Tizen), LG Electronics (webOS) and Vizio. We see a way to help navigate an unending stream of new complexity that's coming to your home and to your life,' Roberts added. The use of Comcast's common set of development tools and overarching global technology platform provides 'one technology front door' across Comcast's customer base and about 50 million devices, Brian Roberts, Comcast's chairman and CEO, said today at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media & Telecom Conference. UK-based Sky launched Apple TV+, the home to original series such as Ted Lasso and The Morning Show, on Sky Q boxes and recently launched Sky Glass TVs in the UK and other parts of Europe in December 2021. Financial terms of the arrangement, including whether Comcast is getting a cut of subscription fees when Apple TV+ subs come through the operator's door, were not announced. Additionally, Comcast customers who are not currently Apple TV+ subscribers are also eligible for a three-month free trial of Apple TV+ when they sign up via a Comcast device by April 25. To help prime the pump, Apple said it will offer Comcast subs a preview of its most popular original series and films on X1, Flex and its Stream app without the need to sign up or sign in. Today's launch extends Apple TV+ to X1, Comcast's marquee pay-TV service Xfinity Flex, Comcast's free streaming/smart home platform for broadband-only customers and XClass TV, a new family of smart TVs now being sold nationwide through a partnership with Walmart. Comcast has opened access to Apple TV+, Apple's premium subscription streaming service, in the US, and acknowledged that it's the first app to take full advantage of the operator's relatively new global technology platform.
