Comcast fires back over Xfinity TV on Xbox 360, says no way, no how it’s violating net neutrality
May 15, 2012 By
Complaints by Netflix’s Reed Hastings and a handful of politicians must have rankled Comcast CTO Tony Werner, as he just posted a particularly detailed explanation of why Comcast believes the Xfinity TV app on the Xbox 360 isn’t violating net neutrality . We’d previously heard the argument that the Xfinity app’s traffic is simply being routed through Comcast’s internal network and isn’t the same as the Internet data of Netflix , but Werner now contends that the Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) tags that some think are breaking FCC rules by favoring Xfinity video are really just necessary switches

UK gets official Top 100 music streaming chart next week, Billboard seen crying in the corner
May 10, 2012 By
Used to be, musicians were judged (commercially speaking, of course) by how much radio play they got and how many albums and singles they sold. The UK’s answer to Billboard, the Official Charts Company, has seen a future filled with streaming music from services like Spotify , Napster and Deezer and decided that it needed a streaming chart to truly judge the success or failure of today’s, and tomorrow’s, top tunes. Thus, a Top 100 streaming chart was created and is set to launch next Monday, May 14

Samsung snaps up mSpot, teases a boost to media cloud efforts
May 9, 2012 By
Talk of a Samsung cloud service might not have panned out at the Galaxy S III event , but that doesn’t mean the Korean electronics giant isn’t interested in the space. Samsung has just acquired mSpot , best known for its cloud music storage and its earlier movie streaming tie-ins with carriers.

Color announces Verizon partnership, preaches the dream of streaming HD
May 7, 2012 By
Color founder Bill Nguyen describes the startup’s early life as being “in the wilderness,” a state, he adds, that can also be used to describe past projects he’s helmed (a point we can’t exactly argue). Of course, Lala finally found its way — eventually being scooped up by Apple . And now Color , an app that’s already lived through its share of lives, has a big name on its side.

HBO Go and Max Go get Android 4.0 phone support, skip tablets for now
May 5, 2012 By
Those with Android 4.0 phones like the HTC One X have been left out of watching HBO Go and Max Go on the road so far. New updates to the respective mobile apps take care of that: either premium channel will now stream directly to a phone running Google’s latest OS (assuming you’re subscribed to pay-TV , that is).
