Growing up we had one television. Hard to imagine, right? What that meant for me and my sister is that we had to watch whatever our parents wanted us to watch pretty much every day of the week. We could watch certain shows that we asked about but for the most part, my parents controlled the channels.
Kids these days have no idea how much entertainment they have that was just not available to us growing up. However, we still have these little battles over the living room television. On Sunday nights, our children like to watch Once Upon a Time and they only want to do it on our living room television. We have a pretty nice setup in the living room so I don't blame them one bit.
During football season, my husband and kids often get locked in a battle to see who gets the television. Until now, it was pretty much impossible to make everyone happy. XFINITY's Cloud Technology changed all of that.
Have you heard of XFINITY's Cloud Technology?Because of XFINITY, hogging the remote is a thing of the past and now we can all spend time together but watch our favorite shows at the same time. XFINITY’s Cloud technology gives you the ability to stream every channel live in the comfort of your home. How cool is that? You won't find that with Google Fiber.
We can watch Sunday Night Football and the kids can watch Once Upon a Time with Cloud technology from X1. You can stream channels live to your devices while connected in your home so everyone can watch what they’d like. XFINITY gives you all a chance to stream your shows while in the same room. Your living room just became a multi-screen entertainment center!
Google Fiber doesn’t carry this capability. What that means is that you wait your turn to watch your show or you go watch later.

Voice Remote from XFINITYWe have only had this in our home for a few days but I have to say that I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Voice Remote from XFINITY. I can search my favorite shows and movies simply with a voice command. You can't do that with Google Fiber. You can even get recommendations on what to watch!

I think most tech and telecommunications companies have cloud technology now. Enjoy the rest of you weekend!
My parents have Xfinity. They have always been really happy with it.
How cool is this? I love it. We have a few tv’s in our house for everyone, but we still get into battles over that living room tv too. Glad there is finally a solution
I know several people who have Xfinity and are really happy with it. It sounds like it is great for people who love watching TV!
We are getting a new TV soon and looks like I need to find out if we can get XFINITY next!.
This really does sound like an awesome service. We’d all be able to watch our favorite TV series!
As a family of five we have certainly had our share of television battles. I love that those arguments can now easily become a thing of the past.
We’re hesitant to put a TV in our son’s name. But this is something to consider so he could watch his shows on the iPad and we’d be able to control his electronics time.
We have and love Xfinity and I haven’t heard of this technology yet! Clearly I need to get on it!
I remember those days! We only had one tv for most of my childhood. When my big sister got one in her bedroom, I thought we were the coolest!
Haven’t heard the XFINITY’s Cloud Technology. Looks great!
Wow this sounds pretty awesome. I don’t know much about this kind of stuff, but I do know my family loves streaming so this is something we’d enjoy. I wish it was available here.
This sounds like it would be perfect for our house. I will have to check it out.
Wow, technology just keeps on moving forward.
It is amazing how things keep changing and developing.
I love Xfinity! Guess I’m old too- we had one TV and we had to get up to change the channel – The voice remote is perfect for me because I can never remember the channels
This is so cool, I love the cloud technology! I had no clue about it, totally going to see if my account has this and how to use it for advanced options to watch shows at home with Xfinity!
That is really cool! Too bad it’s not available in my area. 🙁
I know several people who love this! I just love all that technology has to offer!
I just heard of Xfinity so I will have to see what they offer here for it. Believe it or not we still only have one TV. I like us all in one room together.
I’d like the voice feature on the remote too. I didn’t even know that was possible.
It’s great being able to stream in every room. I remember growing up with having to video tape a show if I wanted to watch it later if someone was watching something else. Technology sure has come a long way.
This is too awesome! I stream all the time, and although I don’t know much about clouds and technology, you broke it down really well for us! Thanks!
This seems very ideal for our home. We are always arguing about who gets to watch what. We will have to look into getting this for sure!!
Now I’m obsessed with it and I don’t even know if they have it around here! I’m on a mission now though!
A voice controlled remote!? The future is now! That is so cool, I want to see one in action!
This sounds amazing! I will definitely have to look into this service for my home!
I would love to stream to every room in the house. I will have to check this out for my family.
I would love to get Xfinity. The whole family will love it. I will have to see if it is available in my area.
That is such a cool tech improvement for sure. I tend to hop from room to room, so I really love this!
Sounds really cool, not sure what we have, better find out and look into this asap !
I have to admit I’ve not heard of Xfinity before but I certainly want to know more now – love the idea of voice control! x
I wish that we had Xfinity available to use. I would make the switch.
