Cable focuses on Internet, satellite TV grows U.S. cable television companies wooed home Internet users from rivals in the second quarter, helping offset a trend that has seen their television customers flee to top satellite player DirecTV Group(DTV.O). Time Warner Cable Inc (TWC.N) and Cablevision Systems Corp (CVC.N) reported on Thursday, like Comcast Corp (CMCSA.O) last week, that they successfully added Internet subscribers in what is now a key focus for companies that were originally built on the back of cable TV programming. Time Warner Cable Chief Executive Glenn Britt said on a conference call that successfully marketing Internet access is as important, if not more so, as selling bundles of TV shows. "Broadband is still growing nicely and becoming a more important part of people's every day lives and we're seeing tangible evidence the consumers are willing to pay more for the speed and reliability," Britt said. Time Warner Cable added 85,000 broadband su...

U.S. Internet traffic talks collapse U.S. regulators halted closed-door negotiations about net neutrality rules with phone, cable and Internet companies on Thursday after reports of a side deal between two participants, Verizon Communications Inc(VZ.N) and Google Inc(GOOG.O), surfaced. "We have called off this round of stakeholder discussions," said Edward Lazarus, chief of staff for Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski. The collapse means Genachowski may have to decide how to regulate Internet access without further input from the industry. His decision will likely be challenged in court. "It has been productive on several fronts, but has not generated a robust framework to preserve the openness and freedom of the Internet," Lazarus said of the meetings in a statement. "All options remain on the table." An analyst warned that the series of private meetings among industry stakeholders could implode due to the deal betwe...

Teen creates free Internet application for iPhone London: A 15-year-old boy managed to dupe Apple by creating an iPhone application that connects to the Internet for free but it is no longer available. To access the web through the iPhone costs around 13 pounds a month. Nick Lee designed a application which at first glance appears to allow users to change the colour of their screen. It was charged at less than a dollar to upload from the Apple iTunes online music store. However, the application contains a hidden code that allows people to use their iPhone as a modem and access the Internet without paying, the Telegraph reported. The application was removed as soon as news of its true nature appeared online. Those who downloaded it, however, can keep enjoying its benefits.
