Apple Entering the Television Market?
Well apparently they have at least been shopping the idea to some network execs. The idea is that Apple would provide an all encompassing package that would give you a “catch-all” subscription for $30 per network. This far no one has acted on the proposal but as we know from the past that isn’t something that would stop the folks are One Infinite Loop.
Clearly the networks have quite a few kinks to work out and for once I actually think that the price isn’t the main problem. What I’m sure they are worrying about most is how this would affect their rating & advertising systems already in place. There has been a little bit of chatter though as one source has a ABC exec saying "I think they might get it right this time," which with ABC owning Disney which has Apple as a partner they could be a shoe-in for first to sign on the dotted line.
