Verizon this week announced that it has added V CAST content to all of its Android smartphones, including the Motorola Droid, HTC Droid Eris, Motorola Devour, HTC Droid Incredible, and LG Ally.
"With V CAST Video, Android customers can now enjoy a wide variety of top-rated entertainment, news and sports programs on demand, whenever they want on the large screens on their smartphones," Verizon said. "V CAST Video recently added programming from AETN, including A&E, Lifetime and History, and Spanish-language content from V-me."
V CAST video features more than 230 full-length programs from over 40 leading providers, meaning you can stream shows like 24, 30 Rock, Grey's Anatomy, Bones, Family Guy, and a whole bunch more, including several sporting events. In addition, Univision Interactive Media will provide live streams of all 64 of its Spanish-language broadcasts of the 2010 FIFA World Cup soccer, so you can watch USA rock England this Saturday, albeit in Spanish.
V CAST runs $10/month in addition to a smartphone data plan, a requirement for all the above mentioned Android devices.

Why pay an extra $10 a month if you already pay a data plan of $29.99?
vCast on the LG enV Touch works great and looks good but I would not pay an extra $10 for vCast on my Motorola Droid. Verizon should offer vCast for free to all smartphone customers.

I wasn't a fan of Vcast when I tried it a few years ago on my LG. It left a pretty stale taste.
Has anything changed? For $10 I'd expect a lot more than stupid movie trailers and 30 second clips.
With flash coming, is Vcast even worthy?

A guy at work had a Vcast phone and was using it. He was watching legit T.V. and on that small screen it looked good. Worth $10? Maybe if I couldn't get youtube on my phone.
