The ability to take your movies/TV shows mobile and enjoy them on a screen larger than 4-inches is one of the advantages of owning a tablet. So naturally, if you just picked up a brand spanking new Nexus 7, that’s just what you’ll want to do. In a surprise move by XFINITY, they have already gone ahead and updated their XFINITY TV Player app with beta support for Android 4.1.
I’ve complained before about cable providers dragging their feet when it comes to bringing our TV subscriptions to our mobile devices, but today, Comcast takes a baby step with their new XFINITY TV Player for Android. Comcast/XFINITY subscribers will now be able to browse and watch thousands of XFINITY ON Demand TV shows from networks and premium channels such as HBO, Starz, Showtime, Cinemax, TNT, TBS, Cartoon Network and BBC America (yay for Doctor Who).
