Apple dezvolta un televizor, intentioneaza sa devina un operator de cablu

  Un nou zvon aparut astazi in SUA incearca sa ne dea de inteles ca Apple dezvolta in momentul de fata un televizor si ca se afla in negocieri intense cu producatorii de continut pentru comercializarea de abonamente. Practic cei de la Apple ar intentiona sa devina un adevarat operator de cablu si sa vanda utilizatorilor abonamente TV in baza continutului cumparat de la companii precum HBO, Disney sau MTV. Daca aceasta strategie nu va avea succes, cei de la Apple discuta si posibilitatea de a utiliza televizorul sau direct cu cablurile operatorilor din SUA, insa se pare ca negocierile in acest sens n-au progresat foarte mult in ultimii doi ani.

One alternative being considered is that Apple could essentially become a cable company itself. Under that scenario, sources say, Apple would launch what is formally known as a virtual multichannel video programming distributor. Apple is still interested in striking deals with cable companies that would allow people to plug their cable lines into the back of the TV set, bypassing a cable box, sources say. But at least two years of negotiations haven’t progressed very far.

Sources say Apple has concluded that it doesn’t need all, even most, content providers on board before it can release a TV set that people would buy. It just needs enough good programming to distinguish the new product, which will try to simplify the experience of connecting internet video to the TV.

  Daca Apple va deveni un operator de cablu, atunci probabil va oferi continutul prin intermedul unei conexiuni de internet, utilizatorii fiind obligati sa utilizeze acea conexiune cand doresc sa vizioneze continut multimedia pe televizoare. In cazul fericit ei ar putea conecta cablurile TV in televizor si ar putea viziona posturile TV fara probleme, insa numai daca Apple se va intelege cu operatorii de cablu. Avand in vedere ca Apple lucreaza de atat de mult timp la un televizor si inca nu l-a lansat, cine stie cat va mai dura pana cand vom vedea acest produs pe piata, iar daca el va fi lansat, in ROmania va fi cel mai probabil inutil.
