Giving great value and staying ahead of the competition is always good for consumers. That's why Verizon is so proud of the continuing innovation and service enhancements we're bringing to both our FiOS and our traditional High Speed Internet services and bundles.
The TV product was improved with things like the EPIX subscription movie service and more Video-On-Demand offers, including HD Net and HD Net Movies, among the 18,000 titles per month. The Widget Bazaar, where online services that integrate with TV watching are available, grew with new choices like WeatherBug, HSN Shop By Remote and NBA League Pass. The Interactive Media Guide was improved to offer new options for finding and sharing media, and Caller ID came to the TV screen.
As for FiOS Internet, we lead the industry in upstream capacity, now offering up to 35 Mbps upstream. That's a lot of YouTube loading really fast! And it's great for gaming and other low latency activities.
As for High-Speed Internet, more than 5.8 million of Verizon's 9.2 million broadband customers rely on it. Now available at up to 7.1 megabits per second to 10 million homes and businesses in 24 states and D.C., this DSL-based service is a reliable and effective broadband service that scored really well in the PC Magazine 2009 Readers' Survey.
And, of course, we just announced new bundle offers for all of it...TV, Internet and our quad plays that include wireless service.
FiOS is just over 5 years old and we keep on making it better. HSI is its older brother, but we keep making it better, too.
It's not enough to start out ahead of the competition with an all-fiber network. Making modern services better and more versatile will broaden the gap between FiOS and cable's choices.
