Here’s Oculus’ reasoning behind the move, as emailed to users: Oculus Go and Samsung Gear VR will still have access to video on demand, including purchases and rentals, as the company firmly maintains its mobile headsets are primarily for media consumption, and not gaming like on Rift.

Milk VR only officially supports full 360 degree videos though, but it can load 180 degree videos if they're in the top and bottom configuration, just not the side by side.
