Comcast, Apple Launch Apple TV+ on Comcast Devices

In collaboration with Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), media and technology company Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ: CMCSA) has announced the launch of Apple TV+ across Comcast’s entertainment platforms in the U.S.

Following the news, shares of the company declined almost 2% to close at $46.30 on Monday. However, the fall can be attributed to wider market concerns.

Initially, Apple TV+ will be made available across Comcast’s Xfinity X1, Xfinity Flex and XClass TV and eventually all devices in the coming days. Further, Xfinity customers who are not currently Apple TV+ subscribers will be eligible for a three-month free trial of Apple TV+.

Management Commentary

The Chief Business Development Officer at Comcast, Sam Schwartz, said, “With the launch of Apple TV+, our customers now have access to all of today’s most popular streaming services through our aggregated user experience and award-winning voice technology. By leveraging our global technology platform, our partners can distribute apps on one tech stack to reach tens of millions of viewers.”
