NBC reportedly working on Apple TV app, but you'll need cable to use it
Yesterday, The Wall Street Journal reported that Apple is likely to launch a streaming TV service without NBC networks on board, owing to a falling out between Cupertino and Comcast. But it sounds like NBC still wants a spot on Apple TV; it’s just one you’ll need a cable account to use.
9to5Mac reports that NBC is actively developing a TV Everywhere-style app for set-top boxes including Amazon’s Fire TV, the Xbox One, and Apple TV. Based on a “recent” presentation slide, the network apparently plans to launch its new app sometime in the second half of this year. When that happens, you’ll likely need to sign in with your cable provider credentials before unlocking live streaming of local NBC affiliates, full episode replays, and so on.
