According to media reports, the company is negotiating with programmers to offer a slimmed-down bundle of TV networks. Apple online TV service would have approximately 25 channels, anchored by the most popular broadcasters, including ABC, CBS and Fox. Apparently, the service will be available across all devices running Apple’s iOS operating system – iPhones, iPads and Apple TV set-top boxes.

It was previously reported that Apple hold negotiations with Walt Disney, CBS, 21st Century Fox and a number of other media companies in attempt to create a modest bundle with well-known channels, such as like CBS, ESPN and FX. However, the company will leave out many networks in the standard cable TV package. Apple is expected to present its service in September.

Media reports revealed that Apple didn’t talk to NBCUniversal, which owns the NBC broadcast network, as well as cable channels, including USA and Bravo. This might be due to a falling-out between Apple and NBCUniversal parent company Comcast. It is known that Apple and Comcast were in early-stage discussions last year to offer a streaming-TV service. This could allow Apple set-top boxes to bypass congestion on the Internet.
