Works fine with both of my computers.  Are you in the NYC DMA?  I suspect each local ABC may have negotiated separately.


Yes - VHO 7. WABC is our ABC affiliate.

I just received a response to my email from WatchABC.  They said they are working on getting Verizon FIOS added to their app.  They said it would be added in the "near future," and to keep checking for updates.  So hopefully, this will be resolved for everyone soon.

Here in the land of Comcast, it behooves Verizon to stay competitive. No AMC episodes or streaming? No WatchABC? No TCN in HD? Verizon and their lawyers ought to start cutting deals sooner and faster and catch up to Comcast.

I don't need any of those badly enough to ever consider switching back to Comcast. Shudder.

If you are still following this thread, as promised in the email from ABC to me a few weeks ago, Verizon is now included as part of the Watch ABC app.  So if you are in a city that offers live TV on the ABC app, you can now sign in using your verizon credentials.  Enjoy!
