Cable TV companies are gradually getting their acts together to stream services on the iPad.
The latest is US cable company Cablevision which has settled a legal dispute with the world's fourth largest media company Viacom.
What happened was....Cablevision launched an iPad app and streamed all channels to the tablet. But Viacom demanded its channels, including Comedy Central and MTV, be pulled because it wasn't getting any more money.
Cablevision refused to drop the channels and lawyers were called in. The lawyers then made a load of money and have now announced a settlement.
They're not saying what the settlement is, but presumably Cablevison will be handing over dosh to Viacom, although probably not as much as both have handed over to legal teams.
