TV Goes A La Carte Lite: Verizon Fios Rolls Out Customizable 'Skinny Bundle'
Posted in: UncategorizedVerizon is putting its FiOS TV service on a crash diet.
The upstart operator on Sunday will begin offering subscribers what it’s characterizing as a “skinny bundle” of cable network packages, a new wrinkle that will allow consumers to choose from seven pre-fab options. A person familiar with the offering confirmed reports reported the service earlier.
Each of Verizon’s “Custom TV” channel packs is composed of cable networks that are stacked together in a genre-specific silo. For example, the Entertainment pack includes ratings-heavy outlets like TNT, USA Network, FX and Discovery Channel, while a Kids offering is composed of the top draws among the footy-pajamas set (Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, Disney Channel, etc.).
