AT&T’s new WatchTV streaming service is now available

AT&T’s new WatchTV streaming service — which costs just $15 per month, $20 less than the company’s DirecTV Now subscription — is now available on iOS, Android, Chromecast, Apple TV, and Fire TV devices, as spotted by Apple Insider.

WatchTV includes 31 channels as of now, including Cartoon Network, CNN, TBS, TNT, TCM, A&E, AMC, and HGTV. An additional six Viacom channels — BET, Comedy Central, MTV 2, Nicktoons, TeenNick, and VH1 — are promised for sometime in the future, too. Customers will also get access 15,000 movies and TV show episodes on-demand through the service.

WatchTV was announced just days after AT&T completed its acquisition of Time Warner — coincidentally, many of the channels available are Time Warner networks, likely a hint of the kind of corporate synergy that AT&T hopes to be able to put into play with the vast new networks it now owns.

WatchTV is included for free with AT&T’s latest unlimited plans: Unlimited &More and Unlimited &More Premium, but you’ll also be able to subscribe for $15 per month without being on AT&T’s cell plans.

Whatever you change can be saved and you can also choose to share your color schemes with others. Firefox also has a selection of pre-made color themes that you can choose from if you don’t want to customize every single color yourself. The second feature that Firefox is testing is called Side View and it does basically what it sounds like: you can view two browser tabs at once in the same tab and window. Without the feature, you can already line up two windows side by... Continue reading… from The Verge - All Posts https://ift.tt/2LZWa7h

Uber and Lyft confirm that they want to expand to offer electric scooters

Uber wants a permit to operate e-scooters in San Francisco, the company confirmed to The Verge . Scooters would be added to the Uber fleet alongside ride-sharing cars and bikes supplied by the bike-sharing startup Jump, which Uber acquired in April.
