Starting today, Xfinity Internet customers with a Flex or Xumo Stream Box have a new option for live TV with the launch of Fubo, a sports-first live streaming service that offers over 400 sports, news, and entertainment networks.
Customers can easily find and launch the app by saying “Fubo” into their voice remote or by locating it within the app menu on their devices. The app is also available on Xumo TVs, which are sold in select retail locations such as Best Buy, Walmart, BJs, and others across the U.S.
“Live sports are best enjoyed on the big screen – in fact, 95% of Fubo viewers watch their favorite content on connected and smart televisions,” said Isaac Josephson, SVP of Product Management at Fubo. “We’re excited to add Comcast’s Xfinity Flex, Xumo TV, and Xumo Stream Box streaming platforms to Fubo’s suite of TV devices. A big thank you to the teams at Fubo and Comcast for their hard work in bringing our premium user experience to Comcast streaming customers.”
“For many consumers, one of the first things they look for in a streaming service is access to their favorite sports,” said John Dixon, Senior Vice President of Entertainment at Comcast. “With a vast collection of sports-focused channels ranging from local broadcasts to national networks covering major and minor sports, Fubo is a great addition to the growing catalog of streaming options available on our platforms. Fubo joins a growing list of both subscription-based and ad-supported live streaming services now available on Flex, Xumo Stream Box, and Xumo TV, including Xfinity Stream, YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, Sling TV, Xumo Play, Tubi, Pluto, and more.
