MediaWeek reports that Comcast’s CES news that it would stream live and VOD programming to iPads and Android tablets has met with resistance from several cable network groups, who say they haven’t approved any such deals to route their content to these new devices. If history is any indication, this could be the start of a new phase of tangled negotiations between service providers and networks. Getting content owner sign-off for new services is critical for the success of any new device most recently Google TV stalled because it had failed to line up programmer support. Many networks too have held back programming from online venues due to their deals with cable operators, suggesting that such content skirmishes are going to continue for some time as both sides figure out how such new media deals should be hammered out.
