Comcast Feb. 27 announced it would make the YouTube app available on its cloud-based X1 set-top box later this year — including integration on the voice-controlled remote.
The UHD Alliance (UHDA), the industry group formed to promote Ultra HD and HDR entertainment technology, announced its specification and logo for portable devices, “Mobile HDR Premium.”
Comcast has offered direct access to Netflix for about 90 days. But in that short time, more than 30% of the cable operator’s X1 subscribers — which represents 50% of Comcast households — use the subscription streaming service, Comcast Corp. CEO Brian Roberts told an investor group.
