Speaking at CNBC’s Fintech Ideas festival Wednesday, Mr. Stephenson said that access to data was “foundational” to what his company does. When asked if this included accessing data from Apple TV, he replied: “Just pick the one you want to pick, we will have access to data.” AT&T owned HBO is a launch partner for the new service, scheduled to arrive May.
