Showtime Anytime

[Dishusercan]

When will this be available on Dish, is it in beta?

 

[CK SatGuy]

Hmmm.... Just like HBO GO. If it just launched, more than likely it'll be beta first before Dish signs up.

I'm ready!

The only provider choices so far are AT&T U-verse and Comcast (beta).
I hope Dish is added soon.

Any updates as to if/when Dish will be added to the subscriber list? FiOS was just added this week.

 

[rednert]

Anyone have any info. on when this might happen for Dish?

 

[Tampa8]

I think we all know the answer.

I think we all know the answer.

In fairness to Dish though, not many pay-tv providers have a deal with Showtime to provide this. Just U-Verse, Fios and Comcast (through it's Xfinity website) customers can access Showtime Anytime.

If it was anything else I'd say don't hold your breath. But with Dish, movies seems to be important. They have online service and On Demand services for Starz, Encore, HBO, and EPIX all ready. They also have agreements with EPIX's mobile app, HBO Go, and Max Go. So I see this being added soon, not "soon". Also, this won't affect the satellite side, just the online side.

Since this has been in 'beta' for so long and only got a very few to sign up for it, I wouldn't start holding my breath waiting to see it supported by E* or D*.

Bringing back the dead!

Wonder if any of the DIRT folks might have some insight???

HBO was picked up pretty quick. I suspect HBO had an incentive to get providers on board. SHO must not be offering goodies. Essentially it has to be some soft of tie in to the billing systems that takes all the work and probably some good expense.

Since I just got Sho and Cinemax, I'd sure like SOMETHING worthwhile from them on the On-Demand side!

 

[DustoMan]

Probably are waiting until Shotime's contract with Dish renews.
