T-Mobile today announced free wireless data streaming at an event in Los Angeles. The Uncarrier program mirrors that of T-Mobile's Music Freedom, which lets customers stream music over its network without impacting data allotments. The free streaming video program is called Binge On and works in much the same way. The service is compatible with 24 video services at launch, such as Netflix, Hulu, HBO Go/Now, Showtime, Vevo, and others. T-Mobile said video will be optimized via proprietary technology to reduce how much data it consumes as it transits the network. T-Mobile said the service is open to any video service that meets its technical requirements. T-Mobile also "doubled the data" available in each of its data buckets for families at no additional cost.
