FCC Brushing up on Comcast's Xfinity

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski said FCC staffers are reviewing Comcast's announcement of its subscriber-only broadband video service, Xfinity, and similar authentication services, but only to get a better handle on them for now. "I'm sure the bureau is looking at that and proactively trying to understand it," he told a reporter after the FCC's public meeting. "But beyond that it is not something that has gotten a lot of discussion at this point."
