Verizon CEO Lowell C. McAdam doesn't quite have all of these SpectrumCo AWS licenses in his pocket just yet, but when he does get them he has a decidedly old style idea of what to flood the airwaves with: TV. The
Wall Street Journal quotes him saying Verizon and its new cable friends may have "the beginnings of an integrated offering" out by the vacations, so pay-TV customers could watch video on their mobile devices. Even if most of the TV services are already streaming video to tablets, PCs and phones, currently most subscription services are limited to the gap of the home's WiFi network, unlike the video on-demand seen above. In accordance with McAdam the prospective to barter rights for out of doors the house streaming or even busting open the bundles for à la carte programming exist -- provided the FCC and DOJ allow Verizon to finish the proposed $3.9 billion purchase. In fact, consumption based billing would still be at the table, so don't start planning your streaming schedule just yet. For now we'll be patient if the professionals of this arrangement outweigh the cons (and the way its Redbox play is blended up on this), or if the pie-in-the-sky NowTV-style elements of the plan are merely being floated to get the deal done.
