5:52 AM - More TV Shows Are Free on iPad Now

We can watch more free TV shows on our iPad now, don't you think? Compared to buy movies or videos on iPad, we prefer to enjoy free things, right? So as we wish, more applications are released on iPad or iPhone, and they are free.

Following NBC's footsteps, Turner Broadcasting System just released the TNT iPad app, which gives you complete access to full-length television shows and movies aired by the network. The new app provides you with a lineup of TNT Dramas that you can access wherever and whenever you want. Appreciate that, but the truth is we can't watch programs of every channel, after all, just NBC and TNT have do something, so if we want to watch all dramas or movies on iPad for free, we have to figure out another way, just like another production of Apple, Mac, if we want to watch dvd or blu-ray videos on Mac, we have to do that with the help of dvd copy mac, anyway,that's another thing. So let's just hope that more channels can sacrifice their show to iPad, and now TNT's iPad app gives you complete access to behind-the-scenes videos, program guides and also schedule reminders. It also integrates with GetGlue, Facebook and Twitter allowing you to share with friends all kinds of updates. As an authorized user, you can watch clips and full episodes of The Closer, Falling Skies, Rizzoli & Isles and more. But the key word here is "authorized user". That's right, in order to use this app you must have a subscription with a TV provider to get full access to video content. Perhaps one day, all content owners will start providing online access to their video libraries without requiring a paid TV subscription.

And Bloomberg announced Thursday that its 24-hour live global business and financial news broadcast would be made available for free to all iPad users, via the new Bloomberg TV+ app. The free-for-everyone strategy sets Bloomberg apart from competitors like CNN and ESPN, who only allow select subscribers to watch live feeds. The app allows viewers to watch in both landscape and portrait mode. An interactive, customizable scrolling ticker displays stock information and news relevant to what's currently playing. While live television plays 24-hours a day, the app also allows users to check out featured videos of the biggest business stories and important videos from the last 24 hours. Videos can be downloaded for offline viewing, and the app also provides extra content on people, companies, and topics while watching. Bloomberg TV+ features Bloomberg's full library of on-demand shows, including Bloomberg West, Charlie Rose, Tech Stars, Innovators, and more.

Like I said, it's more convenient for us to enjoy TV shows on iPad as more apps being released, also, we can copy dvd movie to our mobile devices, iPad, iPhone etc, so we can do more things with our iDevices as time goes.

3:42 AM - â??The Walking Deadâ?? Coming to iOS Devices very Soon

If you really love the zombie TV shows or movies, then you must know "The Walking Dead", it's not exaggerated to say that The Walking Dead is the first real Zombie theme TV show we have watched. The teleplay is adapted from Robert Kirkman's zombie apocalypse comic book series, except for the TV show, The Walking Dead app for iOS is going to be released very soon.

Telltale Games finally has the first episode (out of five) for The Walking Dead, many game players who have tried this game all say it's very exciting and thrilling, so we iPad users can't help wondering when this game will come to iOS, luckily, Telltale plans to release iOS app this summer. The Walking Dead for iOS is set to be an adventure-style horror game set in the same grisly zombie-infested environment found in the television series and in the monthly comic series. If you know how to put movies on iPad, you can watch this TV show on your iPad before the game released, I think it's more interesting to play this game if have watched the teleplay before.

Telltale has released the trailer for the first part of the five part series, entitled A New Day, in the hopes that it will hold fans over until the application arrives on the App Store. In this episode, you'll play through a vehicle named Lee, a loosely defined character with a mysterious history and innocence about him. The opening takes place right before the world goes to hell. Lee is in the back of a police car, handcuffed, talking to the officer driving when, suddenly, the officer strikes a walker with his vehicle. The crash is a stomach-churning, and the action after is intense. Lee survives, but finds himself in a world where the dead shamble and the living sprint.

Speaking of the TV show, "A New Day" does take advantage of the episodic format and presents itself as an installment in a longer story. If you know how to convert m4v to mp4, then you can upload the whole two seasons to your iPad, after watching the TV shows, you will be more familiar to play this game. You're warned at the start of the game that choices you make in this chapter might not have immediate repercussions, but could have impact on later episodes.

If you really want to play this game right now and can't wait for the iOS version, you can purchase the PC and Mac versions from the Telltale Games Online Store, as well as Steam and other digital distribution services. The first episode is also available for download now on PlayStation Network for the PlayStation3 computer entertainment system.

The TV show has been through a crisis before, it almost been cut, I guess the game will make audiences have more interests in the show. The truth is we all want to be a part of the story, the scene and the violence, so let's just wait for it to come to iOS platform.
