go90 is an American streaming service owned by AOL that offers a selection of TV shows, movies, clips, and other streaming media. go90 is free, ad-supported, and does not require a subscription.

From the beginning of 2016 Verizon plans to offer its subscribers go90 content without that content counting toward their bandwidth cap.[1]

go90 was introduced in October 2015.[2]

go90 features original series like The Runner and Tween Fest from companies like MTV, Funny Or Die, CollegeHumor, AwesomenessTV, Nerdist Industries, and more[3] and producers like Ben Affleck, Matt Damon,[4] and LeBron James.[5]

Verizon's advertising campaign for go90 targets Millennials, Generation Z, and gamers.[6] A reviewer for Boy Genius Report said that the development of go90 was a continuation of Verizon's opposition to net neutrality.[7]
