Could Apple TV Become Your Next Cable Set-Top Box?

Could Apple TV Become Your Next Cable Set-Top Box? -

A new report claims Apple is in talks with U.S. cable television providers in an effort to replace clunky old set-top boxes with a sleek new Apple TV capable of viewing live television and other content.

MacRumors is reporting that Apple may be in the midst of its most ambitious plans yet for the Apple TV, and they have nothing to do with creating an actual HDTV.

According to The Wall Street Journal, Cupertino hopes to convince U.S. cable TV companies to toss out their existing set-top box hardware and instead replace it with a presumably updated Apple TV instead.
