Report: ABC to stream live network and local programming to iOS devices

0. phoneArena posted on 19 Mar 2013, 19:24

Soon, you will be able to watch live ABC Television programming from your iOS device if a report released Tuesday is correct; the service would be available to those who could verify that they are a customer of certain cable or satellite television content provider, and would make the Disney subsidiary the first U.S. broadcast network offering to stream live national and local programming to mobile devices...

LOL, i Know right?? Too bad to "live-stream" that favorite ABC program of yours' you'll have to go on a hunting expedition for your favorite wi-fi signal.

Oh, and don't forget your sync' cable.

Yeah this is getting old. Release the apps for Android and iPhone at the same time.

The only show on abc worth watching is Once Upon A Time.

Revenge is also good.

Agreed, it's the only show on ABC that I watch. Although, wish I'd gotten into Once Upon A Time from the beginning. I can't think of anything else on ABC worth watching.

That would be fantastic! Too bad this is iOS only. ._. The current on demand ABC is only for iOS and has been out forever, so minimal hope

Please, a slingbox or vulkano and you can watch more then one stupid channel..lol

I've got a slingbox hd, and it's great, but you're still tied to the networks schedule – you have to watch the show when it airs (unless you have a dvr booked up to it).

I can do this with my Android phone/tablet now. Its called a (Vulkano/Monsoon) Hava Streamer (like Slingbox).
