Here is the announcement:
I’m Andrew McCollum, CEO of Philo. We’ve been hard at work creating the TV experience we all wanted ourselves. We recently launched a package that delivers the best entertainment/lifestyle/knowledge programming in an interface that actually works the way you want for just $16 / month. Our goal at Philo is to build a TV experience that people love as much as they love their favorite shows. It’s been awesome to read your comments about Philo so far, and I’m looking forward to chatting with you about the future of TV! Since it’s an AMA, also feel free to ask me about Gigantor vs Voltron, board game recs, or the best material choice for dishware (spoiler: it’s bone china).
