Apple TV and The Time Warner Deal

typing4_001

Bloomberg reported Tuesday that Apple and Time Warner Cable are about to close a deal that would bring new channels to the computer maker’s set-top box, Apple TV, for subscribers of the cable television service. A deal would bring the set-top box a significant influx of channels, and its first flood of live ones. Apple has been expanding its offerings on the device, which connects Web videos and other media to the traditional television but lacks the the broad array of channels that its chief competitor Roku offers.  Roku already has Time Warner Cable content streaming 300 channels through it where you can view TV through your iPhone iPad or computer.
