Reuters reported today that Apple began talks earlier
this year to stream films owned by EPIX on devices
including a TV.
EPIX has been created by Lions Gate Entertainment Corp,
MGM and Viacom's Paramount Pictures.
Reuters' sources are "two people with knowledge of the
negotiations".
Apple is already selling a set-top box that hooks up to
a television set and lets users stream online content
from Netflix and the MLB channel.
Apple is expected to unveil a TV product later this year
or in early 2013.
Apple has not commented on the report.
