Will Apple Inc.'s Streaming TV Efforts Move Ahead Without Comcast Corporation?

Last quarter, the segment's revenue rose 9% year over year and accounted for 6.4% of Apple's top line. It will also boost sales of Apple TVs, which held a 17% share of streaming devices in U.S. households last year, according to Parks Associates.
