Both New and Old Apple TVs get CBS and NBC Today

Apple announced on Tuesday that two of the "Big Four" cable channels, CBS and NBC, are available on current (2nd) generation Apple TV boxes. However, there are some restrictions. CBS, for example, requires users to pay $6 a month for the CBS All Access program (though it does grant access to both current shows and the network's expansive archives). NBC, on the other hand, will require users to login using their cable provider credentials. Additionally, the "Made2Measure" fashion channel also struts onto Apple TV today. These channels will also be available on the 3rd-generation Apple TV when it is released in the next few days.
