Time Warner Cable to Launch "Look Back"

Time Warner Cable is launching a service called "Look Back" that allows its subscribers to watch some of their favorite shows three days after they've originally aired. The move is a way of adding more "on demand" features offered by over-the-top providers such as Netflix and Hulu.

The new service also will provide differentiation from satellite providers DirecTV and Dish Network, as well as video services from the phone companies Verizon Communications and AT&T. The satellite providers cannot easily match the service because of bandwidth issues, while the telcos likely could match the offer, but haven't done so, so far.
