Posted May 17, 2012 at 3:42pm by iClarified
Viacom has given up its fight against Time Warner Cable which will allow the cable company to add channels like MTV, VH1, and Comedy Central to its iPad app, reports TechCrunch.
The dispute erupted last year after Time Warner Cable released an app that let subscribers stream live TV to their tables while inside their homes.
Here's the statement from the companies:
Viacom and Time Warner Cable have agreed to resolve their pending litigations. All of Viacom's programming will now be available to Time Warner Cable subscribers for in-home viewing via internet protocol-enabled devices such as iPads and Time Warner Cable will continue to carry Viacom's Country Music Television (CMT) programming. In reaching the settlement agreement, Time Warner Cable and Viacom were also able to resolve other unrelated business matters to their mutual satisfaction. Neither side is conceding its original legal position or will have further comment.
The channels will be available in the TWC TV app again soon. You can get the app from the link below...
