Advertising isn't about name recognition. It is about getting more people to buy more of your stuff and name recognition may or may not lead to more people buying more of your stuff. If you can't directly tie it to more people buying more stuff than you are selling faith in the power of name recognition. No business is likely to long base purchasing decisions upon faith.

In another reply you questioned people's level of English comprehension. Did you read anything but the headline of Jeff's post? If so, you are the one with the reading comprehension problem because your entire rant has nothing to do with any of the points Jeff was making in his post.

Of course that doesn't matter to you. You got to create a sensational headline and a fiery rant to please your fanboys.

You can access Xfinity Streampix through the Xbox app. Streampix is an additional service which cost $4.99 per month and allows access to a library of tv shows and movies which can be viewed by customers on their PCs, Xbox360 and Apple mobile platforms. When Comcast gets around to adding streaming capabilities to their Android app presumably it will available their also.

Unlike Ondemand or pay per view pricing is not based on a per viewing or a predefined rental period. All content decisions are made by Comcast versus Ondemand where the content providers control what content is available and when it is available. For example HBO makes different content available via ondemand each month and the decision regarding which content is available is made by HBO and not Comcast.

It is like and intended to compete with Netflix and other Internet streaming services. It operates differently from traditional pay per view and content streaming services. It also is not like a traditional premium tv channel for which a monthly fee is paid. It is exactly this type of service the agreement was designed to prevent favorable treatment of versus the same type of service provided by someone besides Comcast.
