Apple in Talks With MGM and Pac-12 to Enhance Apple TV Streaming Service



The talks could indicate Apple's interest in expanding from its strategy of offering original shows for its Apple TV Plus streaming service, which launched earlier this year with less than a dozen shows, and promises documentaries and other content from the likes of Oprah. The company could also be considering expansion into live sports. It's unclear though whether either of these deals would be for more involvement with the Apple TV app or inclusion in the Apple TV streaming service.




Apple in Talks With MGM and Pac-12 Over Content Deals for Apple TV



I have the exact same problem as the original poster and I tried many times already the solution proposed by trstark66 and it's still not working. It's not working for both my iPad and iPhone 5. I'm using the latest iOS version available all the time. I have my iPad since 3 years and my iPhone since 1 years and I always had that problem. I'm an airline pilot so I'm always in hotels. I asked my colleagues who also have iPhones and iPads and they all have the same problems from time to time. And when I go in an apple store they all say that it's the first time they hear about that problem. I never have that problem with my PCs, my previous phone and my BB playbook. Only with my iPhone and iPad....since now 3 years...Always the same problem. I'm connected to the Hotel Network, I have an IP address but nothing popup to register with a user name, password or just to access the "I have read and accept the condition.../connect". And when I go in Safari or other Browsers, I am not redirected to a login page. All I have is a message saying cannot access the webpage because I'm not connected to Internet. I tried already hard resets, on/off Wi-Fi, automatic connexion off, forget this network, reset network setting...


Any downsides? The platform had a bumpy start in May, with confusion over branding and access among its problems. So far, it is not a powerhouse of original content like Netflix, but nor do its tentpole brands cohere into a simple, elegant whole like Disney+. It is also expensive, although a (presumably) cheaper ad-supported option is planned. Another downside: it only available in the U.S. for now.
