The new agreement means that the phone company’s video customers can stream shows on-demand from the Starz-owned channels to which they subscribe. Starz already has a Starz Play and Encore Play deal with Cox but the company’s content is also available to Comcast, DirecTV, Dish Network, and Verizon FiOS customers from the providers’ online services. AT&T will be the first to also offer Movieplex Play. It’s also the first to offer Starz’ content both through the programmer’s platform as well as AT&T’s own online destination. Apps for the three services are available for Apple devices; Starz has Android apps in the works. There also are user interfaces for Mac and PC computers. But customers can only stream via broadband and Wi-Fi connections — not from wireless 3G and 4G services. Starz is revving up its TV Everywhere platforms following its break with Netflix, which had streamed Starz programming until February. AT&T had 4.3M video customers at the end of September.


This is great news. More deals like this ensure that customers are getting the content they want when and how they want it. It’s really just making services like U-verse a better deal for what customers are paying.
Does this mean they will renew my favorite show Boss?
Yawn. Everyone else has been up for a while. Interesting that Starz started off with Netflix and has now had to back peddle and is starting from scratch with the cable guys. Their coverage is pretty lame at this point.
love some of the shows in Starz..glad that am using At&T
