LAS VEGAS Comcast CEO Brian Roberts is expected to announce the official launch of Fancast, a Web TV and movie destination, during his keynote here today at the Consumer Electronics Show. Fancast grew out of his company’s acquisition of Fandango last year. The site has been in beta since August.

Roberts will also discuss an expansion of the cable giant’s free HD VOD offerings, which includes TV, film and music videos. The HD library, part of a greater catalog of 10,000 titles, will grow from the current 300 to over 1,000 in 2008.
