Alongside new support for MLB.tv streaming, the National Basketball Association (NBA) and Apple have added NBA League Pass support to the second-generation Apple TV. Appearing underneath Netflix and MLB.tv in the Apple TV’s Internet menu, the service allows subscribers to watch up to 40 live and archived NBA games per week, although Local and National blackout restrictions apply. Pricing for NBA.com League Pass Broadband is $65 for access to up to seven teams’ games, or $100 for access to games from all 30 NBA teams. NBA League Pass access requires Apple TV Software 4.2.
