Time Warner Cable (NYSE: TWC) tossed a pebblein the water compared to the iPad app launched today by Cablevision (NYSE: CVC). Optimum Live TV for iPad offers the cable operator’s digital subscribers streaming access to approximately 300 live cable channels and roughly 2,000 VOD options at no extra charge. The company insists the streaming option, which requires WiFi but not internet access, is covered by existing contracts that allow it to transmit to screens within the home.
To use this app you have to be in you homes network. To me that isn't a good app. I like the DISH Remote Access app from DISH Network. I work at DISH and with this app you can watch live streaming content and recorded content anywhere you have a 3g or wifi signal. Check out DISH.com/tveverywhere to learn more about this app.
