Scott Wingo Business: Time Warner Cable nows makes some live programming on your iOS device available outside your home

Time Warner Cable has long had an app that lets you use your iOS device as an extra TV screen, but you’ve been limited to using it only when connected to your home network. According to a press release issued yesterday by TWC, some of that programming will now be available on your iOS device even when you aren’t at home. According to the release:

“TWC TV content is now available while away from their home and features over 1,100 hours of On Demand TV shows and movies from 26 top-rated networks and up to 11 live TV news, sports and entertainment channels. The offering includes Time Warner Cable local news, traffic and weather channels NY1, NY1 Noticias, YNN and News 14. Customers can now watch a selection of their favorite shows on the go. This update to TWC TV also improves the user experience of the live TV mini-guide with the introduction of new filtering and sorting features for the 200-plus live channels available to watch in the home.”
