- Fayve was a digital entertainment distribution service founded and developed by . It was launched on November 8, 2012, and ran as an app on iOS for iPad owners, on Google Play for Android Tablets and on Amazon for Kindle tablets. The app was a movie and TV show discovery tool that aggregated content from Netflix, Hulu, Hulu Plus, Amazon Prime, , Redbox, YouTube, VUDU, Crackle, iTunes, XFINITY, and Fandango into one library. It allowed users with accounts from those service providers to stream content from a single interface. Support for Fayve ended on November 16, 2014, and the app was removed from the app stores after a major streaming provider discontinued its data feed. Fayve was originally created for, and used by, Paul G. Allen, founder of Fayve's parent company, Vulcan, Inc., to navigate “his own giant collection of films and movies.” It was re-tooled and commercialized because of its “broader market appeal.” According to CNET, the name Fayve is both a reference to “favorites” and a homage to Allen's mother, Faye, who died in 2012.
