V CAST

V CAST is a video streaming service provided by Verizon Wireless. User subscriptions include access to a network of programming available from various vendors which are accessible from select Verizon compatible cellular phones.

In 2006, Sesame Workshop announced that some of its Sesame Street and Plaza Sésamo programming would be made available on the V CAST service. Aiming to allow parents to provide "entertainment that is both culturally relevant and educational," clips from both shows are grouped into a series of Learning Moments which cover such topics as letters, numbers, getting ready for school, and other learning concepts. A special "Sesame Favorites" section is dedicated to memorable moments from Sesame Street's 37 years of programming for fans of all ages.

Clips on the service are updated and rotated on a regular basis, and are free of charge beyond the basic subscription fee Verizon charges for access to the video network.
