Time Warner Cable's TV app comes to Xbox One

4.7
Good news: the TWC TV app is available for the cable company's customers (at least until/unless Comcast swallows it up) to watch TV on their Xbox One. Bad news: For now at least, it's limited to video on-demand only and not live TV -- weird, since it's there for the Xbox 360 version -- so it's not quite ready for you to ditch the cable box entirely. There is of course, always the option of using the HDMI passthrough, but it'd be nice to see full features, and according to Multichannel News Time Warner Cable is working on that. It does support stuff like Kinect voice controls and Snap multitasking, and promises both free and paid options among its content, so if you have the cable company's service plus one of Microsoft's current gen consoles

Miss There probably is not live TV because Comcast IS going through a deal with Time Warner to buy them out.


Well it's been going on for like a year now, it will end soon and TW will be part of it probably. So it will merge with Comcast's video app if there is one.
