RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK – Acknowledging that more and more Americans are embracing streaming rathern that traditional cable V packages, Google Fiber is adding Sling TV to its product choices.
“Frankly, it’s been clear for a while now that the best TV is already online,” writes Liz Hsu, Director of Product Strategy for Google Fiber, in a blog post.
“27% of households have cut the cord completely opting for streaming only, and 78% have a streaming service of some type. We know that finding the shows you want to watch can be tough sometimes, given the many streaming options available.”
And she suggests a way for people to find streaming options:
“Use thestreamable.com to find your favorite team or your local news live or a show or movie you love, and to compare your different options for watching.”
The addition of Sling – at around $30 a month – gives Google Fiber four streaming choices, Hsu adds.
“Sling TV joins YouTube TV, fuboTV, and Philo in offering Google Fiber customers the best of live and on demand streaming content, at the right price for them,” she notes.
Google Fiber offers servicces in parts of the Triangle and Charlotte.
