In addition, a growing number of [[multichannel television]] providers, including cable television and [[Internet Protocol television|IPTV]] services, have added Netflix apps accessible within their own [[set-top box]]es, sometimes with the ability for its content (along with those of other online video services) to be presented within a unified search interface alongside linear television programming as an "all-in-one" solution.<ref>{{Cite magazine |last=McMillan |first=Graeme |date=October 17, 2013 |title=Netflix Is Coming Soon to Your TV Through Your Cable Box |url=https://www.wired.com/2013/10/netflix-cable-box/ |magazine=Wired |issn=1059-1028 |access-date=April 28, 2019}}</ref><ref>{{Cite magazine |last=Lapowsky |first=Issie |date=April 25, 2014 |title=Netflix Is Getting Its Own Cable Channel |url=https://www.wired.com/2014/04/netflix-cable/ |magazine=Wired |issn=1059-1028 |access-date=April 28, 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last=Statt |first=Nick |date=December 7, 2017 |title=Verizon Fios quietly adds Netflix integration to three set-top box models |url=https://www.theverge.com/2017/12/7/16747918/verizon-fios-netflix-set-top-cable-box-integration-test |access-date=April 28, 2019 |website=The Verge}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |date=November 27, 2017 |title=How Cable Companies Learned to Love Netflix (or Hulu) and Chill Out |newspaper=Bloomberg.com |url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-11-27/how-cable-companies-learned-to-love-netflix-or-hulu-and-chill |access-date=April 28, 2019}}</ref>
