The newswire reportsthat discussions between Netflix and TWC to include the online TV service on cable box are “ unconvincing to progress ” until the amalgamation — or is that takeover?—is complete . Even then , it might be bad going : Comcast , whilst in talk with Netflix , is force its own X1 set - top box seat for downloads and rentals .
Indeed , it has over 1,000 engineers knead on the project at the moment , and expect , or at least hope , demand for the service to turn . As a result , it ’ll plausibly be … reluctant to receive Netflix aboard its freshly acquired business .
Neither TWC nor Netflixprovided gossip to Bloomberg , with the account instead rely on “ the great unwashed with knowledge of the matter . ” It remains to be seen , of course , if cable television can actually out - Netflix Netflix — but it seems that Comcast is going to give it a damn good go .
