Following NBC’s footsteps, Turner Broadcasting System just released the TNT iPad app, which gives you complete access to full-length television shows and movies aired by the network. The new app provides you with a lineup of TNT Dramas that you can access wherever and whenever you want. Appreciate that, but the truth is we can’t watch programs of every channel, after all, just NBC and TNT have do something, so if we want to watch all dramas or movies on iPad for free, we have to figure out another way, just like another production of Apple, Mac, if we want to watch dvd or blu-ray videos on Mac, we have to do that with the help of dvd copy mac, anyway,that’s another thing. So let’s just hope that more channels can sacrifice their show to iPad, and now TNT’s iPad app gives you complete access to behind-the-scenes videos, program guides and also schedule reminders. It also integrates with GetGlue, Facebook and Twitter allowing you to share with friends all kinds of updates. As an authorized user, you can watch clips and full episodes of The Closer, Falling Skies, Rizzoli & Isles and more. But the key word here is “authorized user”. That’s right, in order to use this app you must have a subscription with a TV provider to get full access to video content. Perhaps one day, all content owners will start providing online access to their video libraries without requiring a paid TV subscription.

And Bloomberg announced Thursday that its 24-hour live global business and financial news broadcast would be made available for free to all iPad users, via the new Bloomberg TV+ app. The free-for-everyone strategy sets Bloomberg apart from competitors like CNN and ESPN, who only allow select subscribers to watch live feeds. The app allows viewers to watch in both landscape and portrait mode. An interactive, customizable scrolling ticker displays stock information and news relevant to what’s currently playing. While live television plays 24-hours a day, the app also allows users to check out featured videos of the biggest business stories and important videos from the last 24 hours. Videos can be downloaded for offline viewing, and the app also provides extra content on people, companies, and topics while watching. Bloomberg TV+ features Bloomberg’s full library of on-demand shows, including Bloomberg West, Charlie Rose, Tech Stars, Innovators, and more.

Like I said, it’s more convenient for us to enjoy TV shows on iPad as more apps being released, also, we can copy dvd movie to our mobile devices, iPad, iPhone etc, so we can do more things with our iDevices as time goes.
