Cable TV giants Comcast and Spectrum are ready to get on the FAST (free ad-supported streaming TV) train big time. As reported by Cord Cutters, the two pay-TV companies are engaged in a joint venture to release their own 4K streamer called the Xumo Box, which will be rolled out to Comcast and Spectrum subscribers sometime this year.
According to the Cord Cutters report, the Xumo box is basically a re-branding of Comcast’s existing Flex streaming player, which it had previously offered free to some subscribers of its Xfinity high-speed internet service.
