Time Warner Cable Said to Be Close to Offering HBO Go Service

Time Warner Cable Inc. is close to offering the HBO Go application to its 12.2 million video subscribers, enabling them to watch shows including “The Sopranos” and “Curb Your Enthusiasm” on mobile devices, according to two people familiar with the negotiations.

An agreement may be announced in the next several weeks, said the people, who declined to be identified because the talks are private. A deal would give Time Warner Cable customers who subscribe to HBO, Time Warner Inc.’s pay-TV channel, access to past and current programs on smartphones, Apple Inc.’s iPads and personal computers.
