Verizon FiOS VOD Available on Portable Devices

NEW YORK: Flex View is a new service from Verizon that allows FiOS TV costumers to access on-demand video content on smartphones, tablets and laptops.

Customers have on-the-go access to more than 1,400 movie titles, with that number expected to grow to more than 2,000 titles by the end of the ear and triple that by next year, including TV shows. Flex View lets users download titles to portable devices so that you can watch even without an Internet connection. Next year users will be able to access their personal content, including photos, videos and music on the go as well. The service is available at no addition fee.

"Verizon is taking the triple play to the triple screen, making on-the-go video programming quick and easy," said Shawn Strickland, the VP of consumer strategy and planning for Verizon. "This is a valuable extension of our FiOS TV VOD service, enabling customers to rent or purchase video programming and enjoy it anytime, anywhere—even outside of Verizon service areas. On planes, trains and automobiles; in hotel rooms and waiting rooms; at work or at play—you name it—Verizon’s new Flex View capability puts video content at customers’ fingertips."
