Cox Contour now Integrates Netflix

Of course Cox Communications has Internet, TV and voice bundles but now Cox and Netflix have announced a Netflix integration on Cox Contour.  Watching Netflix movies and shows has never been easier. Customers can just tell the Cox Contour remote what they want. Cox customers that have a Netflix subscription can watch Netflix content, along with Cox's other programming like live TV, On Demand and DVR content. All this takes place within their Contour TV guide.

Netflix is excited to work with Cox Communications, "Cox Contour customers can now watch TV series, movies, comedy specials and documentaries from Netflix as easily as they watch live TV," said vice president of business development at Netflix Paul Perryman. "Through Contour's voice remote, they can access all of their favorite Netflix or live TV shows all in one place, without juggling remotes or cords."   


The full integration with the Cox Contour and Internet bundle means that finding and watching all of your favorite shows and movies is easy as pie. The Cox Contour remote can be used to:

  •     Search for specific Netflix TV shows or movies using Contour voice remote
  •     Choose the Netflix icon by simply saying "NETFLIX" to the voice remote
  •     Discover and select Netflix titles from the Cox On Demand menu

Cox Internet and TV customers will need a Netflix membership to watch shows from Netflix. 

"Cox has supported Netflix subscribers for years with our high-speed internet service and now we're improving the experience by adding the Netflix service to the Contour TV guide," said president of Cox Communications, Pat Esser.  "Customers want to easily access the content they care about – across sources – anytime, anywhere; we'll continue to look for more ways to improve the video experience."

Cox Contour uses the X1 platform from Comcast which can now include Netflix's content library (with Netflix membership).  You can use the voice remote to change channels, find programs and movies, get recommendations and launch other apps by voice commands.  With the TV app you can get personalized traffic, weather and news. With the sports app you can see scores and other game statistics right on your television screen without any interruption to the game.
