"In fact, they’re adding to it, announcing today that four new services are available through the program. At any rate, T-Mobile seems pretty committed to Binge On.

Now, Binge On is adding some impressive brands to the lineup.

Customers love Binge On according to T-Mobile, John Legere, which had to go through a lot of trouble and ignore a lot of criticism to bring Binge On to the customers of the Magenta Company. He said he expects to see more growth going forward.

What’s perhaps even more interesting is that van Schewick includes in the reportalternatives that T-Mobile could have adopted that would have created similar plans that actually benefit consumers without messing up net neutrality: Binge on in its current form violates net neutrality.

The consumers with the packages enjoy free video streaming from certain websites without any charge for the data usage. As per a new report, T-Mobile is making it easier for their customers to turn off the Binge On feature on their accounts after backlash from critics over its opt-out nature. YouTube has complained that the carrier is throttling its video traffic by downgrading stream quality without consent."
