Comcast has launched the streaming TV service Fancast Xfinity TV this week, featuring shows that have not been available online until now.

Originally dubbed Comcast On Demand Online, beta testing for the service began in June for Comcast ISP subscribers. The service will be available through Fancast.com and Comcast.com.

Xfinity TV will include programming from 27 networks including A&E, AMC, Discovery Channel, History, TLC, and TNT.

Comcast just recently acquired a majority stake in NBC Universal from GE and Vivendi.
