From the Ihate board... Felt like I should upda
Post# of 4205
Felt like I should update on my earlier post with an email just received from IR.
UltraFlix will be on the Sony and Vizio smart tvs, but we are waiting for them to push out the update to the customers, so they will have the UltraFlix app automatically. We fully expect to have it running on 90% of all smart 4k tvs this holiday season and 100% by next quarter. The key is not black Friday in order for the success of UltraFlix, as consumers will already be purchasing 4k tvs regardless. It very well may be available by black Friday, but customers are going to be starving for content and as soon as the update is pushed, customers will start using it right away. With all of the free content available, various ppv, and minimal competition in the space I cannot see people at the very least giving it a try. I own a 4k tv and with very limited content out there, UltraFlix is one of the only solutions. We expect at any time for these updates to be released, as this will definitely help Sony and Vizio sell more tvs. It’s also a good comparison when we speculate on time frame for developments, when even Sony and Vizio have delays. I will update you as soon as the update is pushed out and appreciate your patience while we work on the releases.
