With Xbox Live integration, customers can choose to share and see what friends are watching and use voice and gestures to navigate through Kinect. The TWC TV application also features integrated parental controls through Xbox Family Settings.

TWC TV is available for download at no additional cost in the Xbox Live Marketplace. Channel line-ups vary by market and depend on the video subscription package to which a customer subscribes. Time Warner Cable is working to add Video On Demand though TWC TV on the Xbox 360 later this year.
