Disney-ABC Television Group
Netflix has inked an agreement with Starz Entertainment under which Netflix subscribers will gain unlimited access to 2,500 additional movies and other choices from the Starz Play broadband subscription-movie service.
This latest deal follows on the heels of two recent Netflix agreements with the CBS Television Network and Disney-ABC Television Group, which add current-season episodes of popular CBS and ABC TV shows to the company's growing portfolio of online video content.
"Honey, let's see what's on the Widget Channel." That dialog is what Intel and Yahoo are hoping for with their announcement Wednesday of an application framework for TVs and other consumer devices called The Widget Channel.
The companies said the framework is optimized for consumer equipment with Intel architecture. The channel is designed to allow users to access and use rich Internet applications, even while watching TV programs.
