More Video Providers Added to T-Mobile's Binge On

T-Mobile said additional video providers are now participating in its Binge On offering. Binge On, introduced in November, allows subscribers to stream video from a wide number of services without that usage counting against a customer’s monthly data bucket (see 1511120045). Some net neutrality advocates see the zero-rated offering as potentially violating FCC rules, which T-Mobile executives deny (see 1602040060). Subscribers can now also watch Baeble Music, Discovery Go, ESNE TV, FilmOn.TV, Fox Business, Google Play Movies, KlowdTV, Red Bull TV and Google's YouTube without dipping into their data allowance, T-Mobile said in a Thursday news release. Subscribers have streamed 57 million GB of video using Binge On and 70 percent of the services that subscribers watch are now part of the program, T-Mobile said. “Binge On is a runaway hit, and adding these services is just huge,” said CEO John Legere. “Now T-Mobile customers can watch all of the videos they want from these platforms without even touching their high-speed data.”
