Verizon FiOS in Demand

There’s no promise yet on a live TV enabled iPad app. But Verizon rolled out the FiOS. An on-demand app for Android, BlackBerry and Windows Mobile 6.5. What does it do? It will let you buy, rent and watch the so-called Flex View movies directly to your phone. But we’ve heard that the devices under this is quite limited as of the moment. The inclusion of Droid X, Droid 2, and Storm 2, is obvious but always take not that it will expand in due time. And it’s not just watching movies on your phone, you can also transfer them to your PC.

All Your Media in Verizon’s Cloud

Verizon is prepping up for a year-ender launch of its cloud-based media streaming. Their servers allot each FiOS subscriber a 70-gigabyte storage space for their music, photos and videos. This service allows playback on devices on demand, such as your trusty laptop, tablet or mobile phone.

And wherever there is a WiFi or 3G/4G connection, users can access their media anytime. To retrieve the uploaded content, they should use any of only five authorized devices. People from Verizon also assure the full-download capability of the streaming service, for those who want to make sure they will have something on playback when stuck in an unwired area.

When using another party’s computer, such as a friend’s or the company’s, access through browser will also be allowed, but not download for apparent reasons. Good news to FiOs customers, Verizon is sure to come up with the service before the year ends, running forth before iTunes-in-the-cloud materializes.
