WESTERLY, R.I., Oct. 18 /PRNewswire/ — Residents and businesses in parts of Westerly can now order Verizon’s FiOS TV – the ultimate home-entertainment experience with a broad range of programming choices and superior picture quality.
Westerly is the 27th community in Rhode Island where FiOS TV is now available.
Verizon FiOS is the only TV service delivered over the nation’s most advanced all-fiber network directly connecting to millions of individual homes and businesses, and providing customers with more channels, more high-definition programming, more video on demand and faster Internet speeds than old-fashioned cable TV.
Verizon is offering a triple-play bundle that includes FiOS TV, FiOS Internet and reliable telephone service for as low as $99.99 per month.
In addition, new FiOS consumers who order a Verizon bundle as part of a two-year contract can take advantage of the Worry-Free Guarantee, allowing them to cancel their service within 30 days of the date of activation, with no termination fee.
“Westerly is a new TV market for Verizon, and our customers here, at long last, will have a better choice for TV,” said Bob Driscoll, Verizon sales vice president for the company’s Northeast region. ”Today, they join consumers in thousands of other communities in the Northeast and across the country in experiencing revolutionary TV. With Verizon’s fiber-optic network, innovations like the FiOS TV multi-room DVR and on-screen Twitter and Facebook Widget applications offer customers an experience cable can’t match.”
Driscoll said that Verizon is spreading the exciting news throughout the community through print and online advertising as well as posting flyers and hosting local events.
FiOS TV offers more than 520 all-digital channels, including more than 138 high-definition (HD) channels in Westerly – more HD channels than the area’s current cable provider, Cox.
“Our advanced fiber-optic network was built for HD, providing a high-def experience that cable can’t touch,” said Driscoll. ”With all-fiber connections running straight to their homes and businesses, viewers get eye-popping, jaw-dropping TV in both standard and high definition.”

This is great development for the future of Tv over internet as a concept.
IPTV tipped to outshine 3D TV: expert
By Keri Algar
SYDNEY, NSW: A United States research company has said it expects IPTV to outdo 3D TV in consumer popularity stakes, forecasting close to 120 million internet capable TVs to be shipped globally in the next four years, compared to the 40 million delivered in 2010.
DisplaySearch released the report in the same week that Sony will launch its Google TV integrated range in the US, which is expected to arrive in Australia sometime in 2011.
It would seem 3D technology has consumed consumer interest, especially as suppliers fall over themselves to release 3D capable panels to retailers in Australia, however, before the footy finals retailers told Current.com.au that consumers were asking after IPTV more often than 3D TV.
“I find that more people are asking about IPTV than they are about 3D TV. There is a demand for it, there’s no question,” Stephen Lew, from Clive Peeters in Hobart, told Current.com.au in September.
Harvey Norman business development manager, Chris Raju told Current.com.au that IPTV is an exciting technology the industry is talking about a lot.
“I think [consumers] come in more on the 3D angle than anything else, but when they’re in-store they get more of an understanding of what internet TV is and they certainly walk out, I think, more excited about the internet TV concept,” said Raju.
“At the moment there’s plenty of content already available on internet TV – different applications and different channels – I think that’s creating a lot of demands as well. Our teams are talking a lot more about it than they were 12 months ago.”
DisplaySearch director of European TV research, Paul Gray, said it was an exciting, albeit a challenging time for the TV sector and the multitude of stakeholders.
“It’s a battleground where TV set makers, internet video companies, free-to-air broadcasters, pay-TV and the IT industry are all rushing to stake their claims. IPTV is moving from being a technology to becoming recognizable service offerings,” said Gray.
“It has been a long, challenging journey so far, especially with new competitors like Google TV joining the battle. Set makers will have to acquire new skills such as negotiating content deals in order to succeed. I think most of the TV supply chain senses that this is a seismic shift in the usage of TV that will be far more significant than 3D, which will not alter TV function or usage patterns.”

You can watch TV online through the use of special satellite software for pc. Most of the packages sold online have reviews by people that have used them before and this could guide you before buying. Most pc satellite softwares are not legitimate and people end up loosing their money. You can get some good reviews that give you the critics, complaints, recommendations, votes and prices of these packages online.
Watching pc TV streams on your computer is an exciting experience. Most television networks in America and elsewhere are now uploading their programs and shows online to enable a wider coverage globally.

Watching pc TV on the internet has many other advantages including the ability to watch uncensored television programs and news. Mainstream television service is under tight censorship and usually adjusts its content so as not to offend a divergent audience. Online television on the other hand has very little control and is not subject to such laws. People can even make their own TV programs and upload them online. This makes watching news like the Iraq war better than getting it from a highly restricted network source.
Another advantage of online television is that it is absolutely free. With the cost of cable TV increasing with 8% over the last 2 years, having to watch pc TV from the internet becomes far cheaper. In most cases, all you need is an initial start up fee which usually less than $100. You will be able to watch free TV channels without paying the monthly subscription fees.
The other important element of satellite free to air TV from the internet is that it offers a very wide variety of programs. Most of these software packages offer more than 2000 channels from around the world. This means you have an even wider choice of TV to watch. The programs come in different languages and are especially convenient for people that are living away from home and who might want to watch local TV online from the pc.
