Congratulations
Bright House Networks customers, your off-brand Time Warner Cable experience now includes live TV streaming on your iPad. The Bright House TV tablet app has hit iTunes and is, unsurprisingly, a direct clone of the
TWCable TV app, although it's not the latest version as it doesn't have
parental controls yet. Otherwise it's basically the same experience, complete with the restriction to using it at home on your own WiFi network and its initial
unfriendliness towards jailbroken iPads. there's no word on which channels are available, but we wouldn't be surprised if they also mirror the Time Warner list. If you're jailbroken, check the
MacRumors link below for a workaround, otherwise you can just head to iTunes and download the app directly.
[Thanks, EvilSpock]

Nice thing about being owned by TWC I guess, you get to re-brand it and call it your own. Even if it still has the same problem as the TWC app has, other then Viacom. Yes I am talking about the fact that you can only stream in your own home. The same place where you most likely have at least 2 large televisions that have all the channels already on it. Although if you put the iPad close enough to your face, it will look like a larger television, but that probably isn't good for your eyes. Working at DISH I have seen the industry scampering to get some sort of streaming out the last year, but still the best option for streaming is the sling adapter. It allows you to stream all your live subscribed channels, and recorded shows to your mobile device when you are mobile, as in outside your house.
